Glamotion
Alle guten Dinge sind drei…! Bereits zum 3. Mal findet das Glamotion Dance-Event statt. Und diese besondere Zahl, die Dritte in unserem Zahlensystem, verkörpert seit Menschengedenken ein Symbol der Synthese und Vollkommenheit unserer Weltanschauung.
In vielen Religionen gilt sie sogar als Inbegriff der Vollendung und wird oft als heilige Zahl gepriesen… Ja, diese Zahl erklären wir zu unserer Glückszahl, zu eurer Glückszahl, denn in neuerlichen, abermals vielversprechenden Maßen und Dimensionen werden wir, gemeinsam mit euch, ein unvergessliches Erlebnis gestalten und vollenden:

 

– 3 Top Areas
– 33 Top DJs

Duct Robot UFO Mapping

| 29.09.2009

31488622

betahaus asked me to do some visuals for their atoms&bits party. when i went there before to check out the location, i saw this great piece of duct-tape graffiti art by organ aka. normboy on the wall of their large room where the party was planned to take place. i instantly knew that this piece *had to* be transformed into a mapping. after some tech and logistic annoyances during the final set-up and no way to adjust the projector keystone, it eventually worked quite well and i got a lot of positive feedback from the audience.

the front room was illuminated by a slide projection of hilmikillme’s work and some tv monitors looping selected video works of auderoseselavy, raquel meyers, lucy benson, decrepticon and pixelnoizz. VisualBerlin reprazent!

Reynold Reynolds: Six Easy Pieces

| 24.09.2009

Exhibition September 5th – October 17th 2009
Opening Friday September 4th 19h

Curated by Paz A. Guevara

For the first time the video artist Reynold Reynolds has moved his entire studio into the art space, producing his new film-works live to the audience. During the exhibition the activity of setting up and shooting become six film-performances within an evolving set installation. The live construction of the image destroys the illusion of film, revealing the whole studio process as art.
Bruce Nauman had the simple but profound realization: “If I was an artist and I was in the studio, then whatever I was doing in the studio must be art. At this point art became more of an activity and less of a product.” In this project, film is not only perceived as a projection of what was recorded, but as an on going action. Set up, shooting, editing and projection are taken out of the studio to occur in the art space. The spectator will no longer observe a projected surface, but will be immersed in cinema pieces that combine actions, objects and film.

Using a motion control system, a photo camera, and frame-by-frame technique, the images shine instantaneously to the public. Reworked through the technique of montage, the stills become a flow of 25 frames per second. Between photography and assembled oscillation of lights, Reynolds’ film is constructed and destroyed by its minimal parts.

Immersed in the installation, the viewer gives attention to the set and reality beyond the frame. Tracks, spotlights, fake walls, scientific artifacts, mathematical tools, rare music instruments and everyday objects depict a contemporary Wunderkammer. The ‘cineficated’ gallery makes public the difference between performance and documentation; self and representation; camera and eye; objective and subjective view.

VISUAL FOREIGN CORRESPONDENTS_BERLIN

| 24.09.2009

Visual Foreign Correspondents is a platform for international video artists
to reflect on recent events and to take the role of correspondent through
their work. Die ZEIT online will provide additional background information
and interviews to the invited artists and projects, and invites for critical
discourse about the work.

Coinciding with the 20th commemoration of the fall of the Berlin wall, WL
Project Berlin | Hong Kong together with Visual Foreign Correspondents
Foundation, invited seven international artists to develop work relating to
borders and boundaries and to take different positions relating to the
nature of virtual or physical boundaries, walls or barriers as well as
reflecting on the current state of the world. In times of a global economic
crisis and international acts of terrorism, there is a clear tendency to
re-erect or strengthen existing barriers; just as the European Union is
strengthening its exterior borders.

A project of Visual Foreign Correspondents, Amsterdam, and WL Project Berlin
| Hong Kong in collaboration with ZEIT Online.
