EIN STELLUNG AUS

Ausstellung und Live Performances

Presse Information

Die ‘Stellungen’ der Künstlerinnen aus der Braunschweiger Region, Berlin, Hannover, Zypern und China versammeln sich am kommenden Wochenende 18.8. - 20.8. mit einem umfangreichen Programm; Live Performances, Malerei, Installation, Video, Zeichnungen, Skulptur und Photographie. Jedes der ausstellenden Werke umreißt eine einzigartige Gedankenwelt, hervorgebracht durch einen starken visuellen ‘Erlebensanspruch’ im Moment des Betrachtens.

Zwischen weitergereist aus Zypern, China, Berlin, Hannover und Braunschweig direkt vor den Türen des Hofbrauhauses Wolters, das Atelier WERFTRAUM von Dagmar I. Glausnitzer-Smith bündeln sich die Energien der Künstlerinnen Ilka Theurich, Marion Jungeblut, anna.laclaque, Uschi Korowski, Birgit Dziudzek, Sonja Wegener, Yingmei Duan, Constanze Walter und Elena Savvidou.

An dem Ausstellungswochenende verbindet das Event EIN STELLUNG AUS möglicherweise auch ungeplante und unvorhersehbare Einstellungen zum eigenen Werk, zur Natur, zum Körper und der eigenen Stimme, allem voraus das Bild und seine Position gesehen in einer vielschichtigen Perspektive. Die unterschiedlichen Positionen der Künstlerinnen verbindet möglicherweise auch ein virtuelles Ideen/Gedanken-Gebäude bei dem die Fassaden längst verfallen sind und sich ungeahnte Räume auftun können. Wie sich in anna.laclaque’s Video und Sound Performance in Kollaboration mit Michel Lavignon, Live Elektronik eine Vermutung durchsetzt, daß Bewegung in der Gefangenschaft an Stärke gewinnt oder wie Uschi Korowski im Prozess der Malerei eine emotionale und physische Schmerzgrenze überwindet, oder wie Constanze Walter eine Gegenüberstellung von Natur und menschlichem Luxus wagt, oder wie Elena Savvidou aus Zypern sich in ihren Live Performances zwischen bewußt inszenierte Installationen und drei-dimensionalen Bild Kompositionen so bewegt als sei Kontrolle eine Erfindung der Vernunft und Ohnmacht die Schwäche menschlicher Emotionalität. Dagmar Glausnitzer-Smith stellt Fragen in der Performance und mit einer neuen Installation, “ Alle Bilder sind schon da, gehören sie der Zukunft oder der Vergangenheit; sind sie laut gewesen, haben sie Zeichen in die Flächen geschrieben, haben Schichten Abdrücke hinterlassen? Und vor allem, wo ist ihr Ort jetzt?” Marion Jungeblut’s neueste Serie - metal mirroring melting objects - beschäftigt sich vor Allem mit der Form: Themen dabei sind De-konstruktion des Objekts in der Wahrnehmung und in der konventionellen Perspektive sowie die Auflösung der Form in seiner gedanklichen Kohärenz. Brigit Dziudzek verarbeitet im Vordergrund die Auseinandersetzung mit dem ‘Selbst’, die sich wie ein Faden durch das scheinbar individuelle Leben schlängelt, und hier in ihrer Arbeit auf Fäden durch Wörter und der annehmbaren Konfrontation mit Sprache widerspiegelt. Yingmei Duan’s besonderes Interesse gilt der Erforschung menschlicher Instinkte, Sehnsüchte und Abgründe. Sie bringt sich aber auch in soziale Prozesse ein, hinterfragt gesellschaftliche Konventionen und Verhaltensweisen. Yingmei Duan verbindet in ihrer Arbeit Performance, Video-, Klang- und Installationskunst. Auch Ilka Theurich’s Hauptaugenmerk durch die Performance Kunst richtet sich auf die menschlichen Bedürfnisse und ihre gesellschaftliche Verantwortung, sie beschriftet am Freitag ihre Arbeit, als : ENTFALTUNG, indem sie sagt ” …mit Art. 1 Abs. 1 GG durch das allgemeine Persönlichkeitsrecht bzw. das Recht auf informationelle Selbstbestimmung. Die Entfaltung der Persönlichkeit stellt ein erstrebenswertes, wenn nicht sogar das höchste Gut im Rahmen einer radikal humanistischen Weltanschauung dar.” Und Sonja Wegener bringt zurück die Spuren menschlicher, kultureller Begegnungen und kennzeichnet Momente in ihren Photographien als Bilder jenseits der linearen Zeit.

Das Scheinbare hat die Chance geduldig in den Hintergrund zu rücken. Überraschend ist das was übrig bleibt.

Durational Live Performance with appearance of Eru (Alexander Rues)

Materials: mirror and objects, earth and water

Idea: Even when ‘trust’ is an idea concept beyond its existence, the process begins when I close my eyes.

Trusting takes place when realities shift and the object relation endures by the dictated efforts of its own substances.

MUSEUM OF SITE (MOST) , L7-12A, Jockey Club Creative Arts Centre, 30 Pak Tin Street, Kowloon, HONG KONG

The existence of MOST (Director Andrew Lam) is emblematic of a parallel voice of the conventional culture, institution and museum. Andrew Lam studied art in Hong Kong and England (Cambridge University and Victorian Society London) and he initiated the provocative collective︳alternative space MOST (Museum of Site), which has been a community-cum-alternative space in Hong Kong since 1994. MOST represents an expanding global curatorial purview and innovative platform, aiming to advance insightful perspectives and projects for the art community. MOST’s projects aim to re-contextualise exhibition / performance art strategies, re-imagine new approach and design in global frameworks and conceive experimental curatorial and museum notions of globalism and site-specific actions or projects which refreshes the many levels of physical and psychological, historical and cultural realities of this era.

Concept

Uncontrollable limitations, uncomfortable edges, the visual conventions of border patrol is the uniform

Four corners, four picture rails, sometimes golden and baroque-like, decorative with decadent exaggerations, sometimes simply flat and matt black. However each time it is a boundary: a boundary of reason.

The picture itself within the frame is motionless, rigid and encased as an image being imprisoned, like impressions locked in the cage. The colours are permanently dried up and yet, the participatory viewer is once again free to move their eyes across the plane. It is by taking a decision where to hold the view of perception and where to refute their visual engagement. The eyes and the mind together wander across the field of visual representation until the weaknesses of eyesight stumble across the mental inabilities, and the powerlessness to recognise the object hood within abstraction.

And how a beautiful head ends up in this beast-like monstrous body or how the gold décor does not refrain from understanding that this time, it could be a ‘bad’ painting after all.

Life experience is about recognising a particular image, that which remains heteronomous and yet sustains an interval of potential personal interpretation.

- Crossing Border and Border Crossing - during these days, immediately one seems to associate the terms of ‘crossing and borders’ with the momentary upheaval of peoples of different cultures who are once again on the move. Leaving their homelands, personal belongings and geo-psychological remembrance and commonly perceived traits, behaviours and social rituals.

Memories as elements that are contiguous because of their adjacently connected landmarks of an existential up-bringing.

Movement and nomadism due to existential crisis or natural catastrophes facilitating the needs of shifting are no news in the duration of manhood occupying this planet; consequently wandering to discover and re-habit new, fertile land. Though today, these lands are occupied, beyond pioneering and countries reign under ownerships and economic growth and profits, which brings along the speculation of a gradual diminution of freedom which reduces the quality of life. Thus the fear of loosing wealth and economic standards have brought to societies, the idea of protection through walls, frontiers, borders and border check points, to retain and to encapsulate what appears to be in the right of a few.

This pre-disposition gives the artist Dagmar I. Glausnitzer-Smith to turn inwardly with the incentive in the Live Performance to re-direct and question personal fears by confronting - Uncontrollable limitations, uncomfortable edges, and the probability of visual conventions of border patrol such as the uniform -.

A performative Inquisition:

Where is the kitchen knife, Andrew?

A moment has no truth

You can occupy many positions at once

It's calling

The mind speaks a different language

- Paper Walk, Paper Talk XIII - (Seethed Placid)

In this 13th instance of working with paper in a Live Performance situation, paper takes on its own task. It is only partly controlled, handled and governed through movement so consequently it follows its own potential to unfold in unmeasured time like self-referential layers of multiple meanings and directions. A change of perspective takes place. Layers can be speculated upon a symbolic connotation or a liberated material substance in relation to the body next to it, as well as being combined with the concrete function of providing a ‘simple’ surface.

There are certain surface qualities, which traditionally serve as the compositional foundation to communicate between poetic thoughts, illusions and the imagination. However the action itself rejects signs of narration and so dismisses the congruence of representation.

Lets see: Dampen the spirits of the placid flows within, conjures with the equanimous state of being.

Berlin 2017

4th INTERNATIONAL PERFORMANCE ART WEEK-END BERLIN 136.10 Hertz

Concept

International artists will create a two-day event, starting on Friday May 26 at 5 pm with a social gathering to meet and greet all the participating artists followed by the first Opening Live Performance featuring Alexandra Zierle & Paul Carter from England. On Saturday May 27 , the 4th Performance Art Weekend Berlin 2017 in Neukölln will start at 1 pm at Schillerkiez around the church at Herrfurth Platz, with Barbara Kowa, Patrick Jambon, Monique Yim and Wong Wiency from Hong Kong and continuing at 2 pm a few streets down the road at Allerstrasse 38, Luisa Catucci Gallery will open doors for international Performance Actions with an hourly schedule throughout the weekend. On Sunday evening B. Ashra and Eru are inviting for a Live experimental, electronic sound production recognising the tonal frequencies of 136.10 Hertz.

The power of momentary impulses and the power of intervention with space and time, and the encompassing mix of genres and disciplines create the action weekend to become an unforeseeable overall picture of Performances where the threshold of categories merges.

Material and conceptual structures are absent and the viewers meet with their own interpretative freedom.

A world within a world where one main characteristic dominates: the transformation of ideas, redirecting the expectation level for completeness into an permissiveness for surprise.
Artists and viewers alike experience the amenable possibilities of dis-categorization between performing art and fine art.

Artist next to Artist and its non-stopping continuity of actions and movement through spaces, gallery and most of all public, unexpected urban environments of Neukölln’s everyday life situations.
Pavements transform into exciting, temporary platforms for feet and heads and the pedestrian’s stride is being interrupted.

The idea that the limitations of private and public are being met and may be are distorted, at that threshold open the borders of countries and foreign cultures, the moment when artists of different nationalities engage at Luisa Catucci Gallery as a unique, international experienced art platform.

The exhibition and Performance Art Series directed and curated by Panicattack Duo and Dagmar I. Glausnitzer-Smith

Today, non-belonging determines the feeling of uncanniness. One's disorientation, uncertainty and ' disconnected status' is a fragile sense of position in the world; a crisis of self. What are we bringing in to question at this exhibition is the status of the female and her non-belonging in the retrograding and unapologetic political climate, currently experienced all over the world. written Naz Balkaya and Emily Demetriou 2017
