»Ukraine | Auf den Grenzen der Petromoderne«, ein Beitrag von Alexander Klose und Benjamin Steininger in der Zeitschrift »Dritte Natur. Technik Kapital Umwelt« Matthes&Seitz Berlin 2023, S.7-40.

Seit dem russischen Krieg in der Ukraine ist sie Thema politischer, ökonomischer und kultureller Debatten: Energie. Sabotierte Pipelines, gebrochene Staudämme und beschossene Atomkraftwerke machen die Verletzlichkeit unserer Energieinfrastrukturen greifbar – und die unserer gesamten energieintensiven Lebensform. Das fossile Zeitalter hat Karbon- und Petromoderne ermöglicht und weitreichende Freiheitsroutinen etabliert. Zugleich aber untergräbt es unsere Lebensgrundlagen. Damit überlagern sich die vom Krieg angefachten Diskussionen über Versorgungssicherheit mit Debatten, die seit langem über die Notwendigkeit einer postfossilen Kultur geführt werden. Energieformen nämlich prägen Kulturformen. Und Geschichte lässt sich immer schon als Geschichte von Energiewenden und Konflikten zwischen Energieregimen lesen. Diese Ausgabe der Zeitschrift »Dritte Natur. Technik – Kapital – Umwelt« widmet sich in ihrem Schwerpunkt verschiedenen Facetten von Energiekulturen – etwa dem Energiemanagement der Finanzmärkte, autofreien Sonntagen in der alten Bundesrepublik oder Windradromanen der Gegenwartsliteratur.

Petromelancholia – essay version

Exhibition at Brutus, in the port of Rotterdam, NL, Sept 1 to Nov 19

In bed with petroleum. 
In the air.
On the road. On the plate. 
All over and inside bodies. 
It’s a love affair that modern industrial civilization has been having with oil (and gas), its fuels and the materials created from it. More than that: it’s a love of life, profoundly influencing how people live, move, eat, dress, love, experience, aspire, and believe. A love, though, that has increasingly expressed destructive aspects, excess, exhaustion, abuse, addiction, and contamination.

“Petromelancholia” is the condition that the US energy humanities scholar Stephanie LeMenager diagnosed as being at the core of her home country’s cultural and political struggle to hang on to “oil culture“. The more people realize that the age of oil is eventually going to end—and has to in regard to the state of the planet—the harder they cling on to it. Following this diagnosis, the world has lately been swept by waves of petromelancholia. Acknowledging the long-lasting success of these dynamics of denial, which started 50 years ago, a mere “energy transition” might turn out to be not enough to get over modernity’s true love. 

Wouldn’t we also need acceptance and grief, reconciliation and reparations—processes that eventually lead to profound cultural, political and economic transitions?

Upon opening of our OIL-exhibition in Wolfsburg two years ago, Joep van Lieshout, one of the participating artists, asked if we wanted to curate a  follow-up show at his newly founded „artist-driven space“ Brutus in the port of Rotterdam.

Rotterdam! One of the oil capitals of Europe, largest port, largest refinery, largest petroleum storage and processing capacities. Largely and radically rebuilt after WW2 in all kinds of modernist style — a through and through petromodern city.

And since our 2017 visit to a Delft ‘Petroleumscapes’ conference, the region had played a role in our own petroleumscapes research, resulting in ‘Greenhause’, a chapter of our Atlas and in some smaller essays and publications).

Though a comparably low-budget project, the possibility to bring our curatorial research there was tempting.

After one and a half years of preparation, with a short residency and a petrosalon at Goethe Institut Rotterdam in april last year as startig points and deciding additional help and motivation, the exhibition opened on Friday, Sept 1st! Other than our Wolfsburg exhibition, which claimed to show the first retrospective of 100 years of petromodern art, „Petromelancholia“ is largely dedicated to our contemporary petromodern states of heart and mind. 

The exhibition consists of four chapters:
1 In Bed with Oil
2 Oil Encounters
3 Toxic Legacy and the Museum of Petromodern Futures
4 Arts of Living on a Damaged Planet.

The opening paragraphs of this entry are from the wall-text of the first chapter. All four wall-texts can be downloaded as a pdf here.

The exhibition is spread over the complete Brutus-compound and consists of four chapters. Here’s a floorplan (click on image to enlarge or download as pdf).

Review of our »Atlas of Petromodernity« at the prominent history of science journal »ISIS« by Jens Soentgen

» […] The boldness of the authors is to be applauded, for petroleum is not only a basic supplier of energy but also a basic material of the modern world. Almost everything in our modern world is linked to petroleum. Coping with this omnipresence is possible only by limiting oneself spatially, temporally, and methodologically. Various studies on petroleum that have appeared recently have taken this approach, such as the justly well-regarded work of Stephanie LeMenager. Klose and Steininger choose a different option. Their book consists of shorter articles, each picking out individual aspects. This creates a kaleidoscope of impressions: a master story is not told—and shall not be told.

The very well written book takes on the form of the ironic encyclopedia that has been popular since the nineteenth century, as a parody of the great encyclopedias of the Enlightenment era. Impressive color illustrations complement the text and, according to the authors, justify the “Atlas” of the subtitle (p. 15). In their individual glosses, the authors almost always succeed in offering interesting and often novel discoveries. For example, the topic of drilling is presented in a well-founded and stimulating manner in a brief account. The catalytically controlled chemical transformation of petroleum constituents is also solidly presented under the heading “Molecular Mobilization” (pp. 49–57). Often, the reader’s expectations are deliberately played with—as, for example, when the essay entitled “Animals in the Oil Field” (pp. 199–203) deals not with seabirds that are glued together and dying but, rather, with animals that visit drilling grounds. This approach arouses interest and curiosity but also increases perplexity. The reader is left alone with the material and must tell his own story.

And this is precisely the goal; it also fits the form of the ironic encyclopedia, which from the outset does not lead one to expect that an overview will be presented. The history of oil is a history that crashes over us. “Erdöl: Ein Atlas der Petromoderne” aims to use brief spotlights, from very different perspectives, to draw attention to a substance that is part of the everyday life of modernity. It succeeds in doing so; at the same time, the well documented individual articles offer suggestions for further study and some connections that may be new even to researchers who have been in the field for some time. An English edition is in preparation.«

Exhibition just opened! »Petromelancholia« at BRUTUS, Rotterdam, 2.9.2023 – 19.11.2023

»Petromelancholia« examines the enormous consequences of a life beyond oil, the magnitude of which many do not yet realize. Unlike the many exhibitions that sing about doom scenarios or kick in the open doors of the climate crisis, Petromelancholia reflects on the legacy of the oil age and the new meaning that this past will irrevocably acquire. What has oil brought us, materially and especially culturally, and what might disappear or change?

It’s hard to think of a better location for Petromelancholia than at BRUTUS – situated in the Rotterdam harbor. In few places will the impact of the energy transition be more visible than here. This is therefore the most appropriate place for critical self-reflection with a good dose of melancholy and nostalgia. The exhibition reflects an urgency that has never before been felt this strong.

With works by: Yuri Ancarani (ITA), Rowan van As (NLD), Alessandro Balteo-Yazbeck (VEN/GER), Diann Bauer (USA), Uwe Belz (GER), Vanessa Billy (CHE), Kevin van Braak & Ipeh Nur (NLD/IDN), Imani Jacqueline Brown (USA), Andrew Castrucci (USA), Chto Delat (RUS), Timo Demollin (NLD), Tanja Engelberts (NLD), Christoph Girardet (GER), Rumiko Hagiwara (JPN/NLD), heidundgriess (GER), Bernhard Hopfengärtner (GER), Aaditi Joshi (IND), Olaf Mooij (NLD), Leonhard Müllner & Robin Klengel (AUT), Hugo Niebeling (GER), Alain Resnais (FRA), Konstantin Schimanowski (RUS/GER), Miriam Sentler (NLD), Sanaz Sohrabi (IRN/CAN), Johannes Steendam (NLD), Gunhild Vatn (NOR), Jan Eric Visser (NLD), Rachel Youn (USA), Marina Zurkow (USA).

Visit Petromelancholia from 2nd of Sep until 19th of Nov.

Zombie: Über den Krieg in der Ukraine

Text von Benjamin Steininger und Alexander Klose über die “Geister der Petromoderne”, erschienen im Juliheft 2023 der Zeitschrift Merkur.

Ein russischer Panzer hat sich festgefahren. Von seiner Besatzung verlassen, wird er von einem ukrainischen Landwirt mit dem Traktor geborgen. Zahlreiche Varianten dieser Szene kursieren im Frühjahr 2022 in sozialen Netzwerken. Zur Beute der Traktoren werden sehr verschiedene räder- oder kettengestützten Kampffahrzeuge. Von veralteten T 62 Panzern aus dem Jahr des Berliner Mauerbaus bis hin zum gepanzerten Raketenwerfer TOS – Waffensysteme, die in Afghanistan 1980 erstmals eingesetzt wurden, die Grozny 1999 und Aleppo 2014 in Schutt und Asche gelegt hatten, liegen wie gelähmte Käfer im Dreck. 

(…)

In der Szene mit Traktor und Panzer manifestieren sich exemplarisch komplexe und zum Teil widersprüchliche Verhältnisse von petromoderner Geschichte, Technik und Politik, Menschen und Landschaften. Wie schon die Corona-Krise erscheint der Ukraine-Krieg als zentrale Zäsur, insbesondere, wenn man die Gegenwart als  Petromoderne untersucht.

(…)

Als einen »Zombie« beschreibt der russische Schriftsteller Wladimir Sorokin den zum Leben erweckten »toten Körper des Sowjetischen«. Doch was sich nach unserer Auffassung 2022 wie ein untotes Monster aufbäumte, ist die Petromoderne insgesamt: alter geostrategischer Ungeist und falsche Geschichtspolitiken statt neues öko-geohistorisches und kooperatives Bewusstsein. Und konkret: Rüstungsgüter, die vor Jahrzehnten produziert worden waren und die man als Fossilien eines überwundenen Kalten Krieges hatte vergessen können, lassen ein Panorama alter petromoderner Kriege aufleben – in Echtzeit verbreitet in einer Unzahl von Bildern und Videos in digitalen Medien.

2022 in der Ukraine stehen Panzer und Traktor für noch immer nicht gelöste Konflikte. In ihrem technischen Bezug zur Landschaft ähneln sich die beiden Fahrzeuge mehr als es auf den ersten Blick scheinen mag. Beide haben historisch entscheidenden Anteil an den Mobilisierungen aller Lebensbereiche, die das petromoderne 20. Jahrhundert kennzeichnen. Es sind die Prärien des Mittleren Westens und die Steppen der Ukraine und Russlands, auf denen der Traktor sich als zentrales Instrument einer neuen, industriellen Landwirtschaft erweist – der amerikanische Fordson von 1917 wird rasch in der Sowjetunion als Fordson-Putilowez kopiert. Etwa zeitgleich, im September 1916 an der Somme und in der „Tankschlacht von Cambrai“ im Revolutions-November 1917, etabliert sich der Panzer bei seinen ersten militärischen Einsätzen als Ikone petromoderner Kriegsführung. Die für den Panzer entscheidende Idee, eine Raupenkette als eine Art stählernen Fahrweg vor die Räder der Maschine auszulegen, auf dem sich dann nahezu jeder Untergrund überwinden lässt, stammt aus der Landwirtschaft, vom legendären US-amerikanischen Erfinder Benjamin Holt, der 1904 erstmals Raupenketten erprobte.

(…)

Rädergestützt oder auf Raupen ist der Traktor eines der stärksten Symbole einer petromodern mobilen Agrartechnik, die Böden nicht als Teil einer von selbst wachsenden Natur, sondern als technische Ressource begreift, in denen Landwirte nicht mehr mit der Natur, sondern auf Maschinen gegen die Natur arbeiten. Das Unterwerfen feindlicher Armeen oder aufrührerischer Bevölkerungen einerseits und das Zähmen von Naturprozessen im Sinne totaler technischer Verfügung andererseits gehen Hand in Hand. „Die Beherrschung der Natur durch den Menschen verrät uns viel vom Wesen der menschlichen Herrschaft“ wie der Historiker David Blackbourne schreibt. …

Den vollständigen Text gibt es in der aktuellen Ausgabe des Merkur zu lesen.

Mein Schatz / My precious

Exhibition on post-mining landscapes and mentalities, on mining that takes place elsewhere, and on the relation between precious metals and digital culture.

Co-curated by Beauty of Oil’s Alexander Klose together with Daniel Herrmann, artistic director of Werkleitz.

From June 2nd to 18th on the compound of Wiederstedt Castle, where the early romantic poet Novalis spent his childhood, in Mansfeld county, a former mining region 40 km west of Halle (Saale).

Nature does not want to be the exclusive possession of a single individual.
(Novalis, Heinrich von Ofterdingen)

What is My Precious today? And what does that still have to do with exquisite materials from underground? An exhibition project about local and global mining, its consequences as well as its people and natural conditions.

Mansfeld region 2023. The mining district in the triangle between Eisleben, Sandersleben was up until recently a place of hard work down in the mines and in the foundries. Now the region is seeking new added values and virtues. It is said that mining shapes people in a special way. Today, 30 years after the abrupt end, what about the afterlife and survival of the old values? What new values have been created?

Werkleitz has invited ten internationally working artists for the 2023 My Precious festival. With eight new works created specifically for the festival and two works adapted to the local conditions, they respond to the complex mélange of questions that arise when looking at the Mansfeld region today. A film room curated by Florian Wüst in the Inspektorhaus, as well as a dense program of artist talks, guided thematic walks, workshops for children, concerts, readings, and much more complete the festival offerings. Lena Reisner, whose exhibition Fossil experience could be seen in Berlin in 2022, was invited as a free curatorial researcher and came back with stories about women in the mines from Saint Barbara to actual workers.
