Accessibility Day

Author: Christina Fasching (Red)

Jointly organized by the Library of the Universtiy and the Student Welcome Center, the aim of "Accessibility Day" was to shed light on accessibility and inclusion from different perspectives and, ideally, to inform new target groups (students, teaching staff and an interested public) about the complex topic of accessibility and get them interested in it.

The "Accessibility Day" took place in November 2022 under the title "Screen Reader - Positions on Accessibility" at the University Library of the Academy of Fine Arts.

The video by Luiza Furtado shows a performance by Vera Rosner.

Luiza Furtado was born in Brazil. She lived in Rio de Janeiro for over 20 years, where she received her Bachelor's degree in Industrial Design from PUC University in 2021. She studies in the Contextual Painting class in the Department of Art and Image at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna. Furtado's research on intuitive dance interweaves painting, soft sculpture and audiovisual media. She creates fabric capsules for symbolic rituals of empowerment and care. Her performative work is based on prosthetic experiments with upcycled textile craft from a queerfeminist perspective.
