![Jeremy Deller: The Battle of Orgreave
The Struggle is real, isn’t it? [english]
13.June / 8pm / Fortuna Kino, Favoritenstraße 147, 1100 Wien
Introduction, Screening & Discussion[german] with Anne Zühlke
In 2001, British artist Jeremy Deller re-enacted one of the most crucial moments from a recent chapter in British labor history and social struggle: the “Battle of Orgreave.” In 1984, the small village near Sheffield became a symbol of rampant neoliberalism — a force that not only destroyed the working conditions of thousands of miners and their historic unions, but also launched a direct attack on community structures and collective identity. Under then-Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, the government-led dismantling of the welfare state involved not only the police and judicial system, but also the largest media agencies — making the threat highly visible. Jeremy Deller challenged this media-driven narrative, which was later proven to have been manipulated. He brought together thousands of former miners to re-enact this traumatic event at its original historical site. Can the wounds of the past be healed by collectively reliving them? And is it possible to confront history through performative impeachment?](https://www.oehakbild.info/wp-content/plugins/instagram-feed/img/placeholder.png)
