In her film installations, Isa Rosenberger weaves traces of history - forgotten or marginalised, often feminist and Jewish women's history - into multi-perspectival historiographies in which gaps and voids are constitutive. In the film realisation, Rosenberger uses montage: linguistic and visual, documentary and fictional narrative levels switch, fragment and join up again, always tied in with current issues and discourses.Taking this into account, the exhibition in Kunsthaus Graz is oriented towards the idea of the 'stage' as a performative space, as a space of memory and experience that should be activated. Shadows, Gaps, Voids is Isa Rosenberger's most comprehensive show to date and features six older works and a new piece, a co-production with Stiftung Bauhaus Dessau.

Journals offer young people a safe place to reflect, reminisce, dream, explore feelings and relationships, set goals, solve problems, celebrate themselves, and yes, even practice writing. In this book the authors detail myriad fascinating possibilities for journal keeping as a tool for transformation and for building skills. Techniques range from writing about a first memory to designing a dream house to creating a main character for a novel. Guidelines, tips, and lists of additional resources abound. Chapters cover reasons to keep a journal, techniques and definitions, recording the present, remembering the past, exploring the future, the celebration journal, reflection, problem solving and decision making, catharsis, fantasy, people, practicing fiction, reviewing the journal, and sharing the journal.
