Ingo Günther: Refugee Republic  
In a multimedia installation based on the text "Refugee = Capital," Günther conceptualizes his Refugee Republic as a transnational and supraterritorial network in which refugees worldwide could represent themselves and use their collective experiences in the formation of a global model state. Refugee Republic suggests a transformation of the role of the world refugee population: from a social and economic burden to the socioeconomic and political/ideological avant-garde. Presented with the support from the Goethe-Insitut Boston.
