The curatorial journey imagined among the ideas of the novel “Scorpion” (Der Skorpion), published during the interwar period by the Romanian-German writer Anna Elisabet Weirauch (1887–1970), proposes a subjective exploration, at times inspired by the method of objective chance, into a “lesbian” universe from different times and places. This universe is expanded and updated on multiple levels with nuances from our contemporary days. Objective chance was developed by surrealists in the 1920s and 1930s as a creative method based on the seemingly random encounter with an external cause whose emotional impact is so powerful that it generates intense passion. In the case of this exhibition, the passion for “Scorpion,” the first bildungsroman in the history of literature that follows the development of a cisgender lesbian in Berlin in the 1920s, was cultivated through friendship with lesbian activists Suzette Robichon and Traude Bührmann.
