"Mirror
by Mirror“ Hommage an Andrei Tarkovsky Ausstellung vom 03. April – 20. Juni 2009
Die Ausstellung war bereits mit großem Erfolg in Arhus (Dänemark) und London zu sehen – und wird nach Berlin in Moskau und Paris Station machen. Mit freundlicher Unterstützung der russischen und dänischen Botschaft in Berlin. Einführung: Dr. Peter Funken, Berlin. engl. Version: ”Mirror by Mirror” by Sergei Sviatchenko A personal tribute to Andrei Tarkovsky, one of the greatest poets of cinematic art. Photocollages, Video, Installation 3 April – 28 May 2009 The exhibition ”Mirror by Mirror”, as well as the publication accompanying it, take the film “The Mirror” by Russian film director Andrei Tarkovsky as their starting point; a film that has strongly influenced the understanding of art and visual formation of Danish visual artist and architect Sergei Sviatchenko. Ukrainian born living and working in Denmark for more than 20 years, this exhibition traces a path back to the roots of Sviatchenkos visual training at the school of architecture in Karkov Ukraine. ”Mirror by Mirror” crystallizes the essence
of a never physically realized meeting between two artists, who, from
their respective places in history, deal with images combining, at the
same time, the distance of the imposing with the presence of the detail
in urgently insistent and relevant attempts to comment on and describe
the world, as well as the many physical and mental spaces that people
enter throughout life. By mirroring his own work in Tarkovsky’s,
Sviatchenko stages his individual narrative as autonomous visual statements,
borrowing from and referring to “The Mirror”. |

Hajnal Németh Crystal Clear Propaganda - The Transparent Method
The exhibition is constructed of a central sound installation accompanied by photographs and posters. The exhibition space is transformed into a space of political propaganda, where the agitating effect of music, flamboyant colours, pathetic poses and provocative sentences is immediately debunked: the 6 different versions of the Marseillaise emanating from the speakers are all off-key and the lyrics that sound French are in fact mostly out-and-out nonsense, and the texts on the emblematic posters of movements encourage spiritual, instead of political, rebellion. Miming the original without actually knowing the tune or the lyrics, the recorded fake Marseillaise versions were sung by the people on the posters: Unfamiliar faces encouraging you to liberate yourself and not the country or the world. The work thus employs the model of political propaganda to make a point about metaphysical revolution involving the individual or ranging beyond the individual. The example of the revolution, however, is by no means a political statement; on the contrary: it is the parody of political statement through modelling the method of popularization. |

Hajnal Németh – AIR OUT Die ungarische Künstlerin Hajnal Németh (*1972) lässt die Luft raus - und schafft es erneut in ihrem aktuellen Werk uns Raum zu geben zu essentiellem Luftholen. Die Ausstellung mit Fotografien, Video und Installation - basierend auf Bach's Suite „Air“, fragt nach der Eigenbewegung der Phantasie, dem „leeren Ort“ der Imagination zwischen Klang und Körper - oder wie Paul Celan es formulierte: „ Poesie zwingt sich nicht auf, sie setzt sich frei.“ 12.12.08 - 30.01.09 |

Chan-Hyo
Bae & Anastasia Cazabon – Storytelling
Der in London lebende Süd-Koreaner
Chan Hyo Bae inszeniert sich in Kostümen britischer
Monarchinnen aus dem 13. bis 19. Jahrhundert - getreu der asiatischen
Theater-Tradition, Männer in Frauenkleidern auftreten zu lassen.
Sein Rollenspiel ist eine Zeitreise durch verschiedene Stilepochen einer
ihm fremden Kultur, das ihm die Möglichkeit gibt seine neue Identität
in Europa zu erproben. Dabei stilisiert der Koreaner seine Gestik und
Mimik so perfekt, das sein asiatisches Antlitz als ausdrucksstarke Stereotype
jenseits von Rassen- und Kulturgrenzen brilliert. |
