The Harun Farocki Institut (HaFI) was founded in September 2015 as a platform to research the visual and discursive practice of the filmmaker and author Harun Farocki (1944–2014). The HaFI is a flexibile structure for new peojects that engage with the past, present and the future of image cultures. The HaFI embrace Harun Farocki’s idea of an institution that ‘we can also organize’ as ‘an assembly of working people, not from an abstract understanding but from the contact points of their work.’(1976)
The HaFI’s archive is not conceived of as a self-contained inventory, but as an open collection of material with different functions and materiality which will grow over the course of time. The medium-term goal is the establishment of a workplace which interested researchers, curators, artists, and educators can turn to.
The HaFI is a partner institute for one of three residencies sponsored by the Goethe Institute (Living Archive Residency, Film.Feld.Forschung Residency, Harun Farocki Residency) for international artists, film makers, curators, and scholars. Once every year a recipient will spend three months in Berlin at the invitation of the HaFI.
The first edition of the online magazine Rosa Mercedes is planned for 2018.
