Strictly Berlin 2000-2006
Galerie der Kunste - GdK, Berlin
Mediaart from Berlin. This exhibition brings together a plethora of parallel approaches that take different expressive forms. In Berlin a formulation of similar concerns can be seen to pervade all spheres of art, be it music, the visual arts, film, theatre or performance. Artists from many countries, not just from Germany, have made Berlin their home, at least for a time. Curated by Heiko Daxl and Ingeborg Fulepp.

"Our best ideas are often those that bridge between different worlds." (Marvin Minsky)
This exhibition brings together a plethora of parallel approaches that take
different expressive forms. In Berlin a formulation of similar concerns can be seen
to pervade all spheres of art, be it music, the visual arts, film, theatre or
performance. Artists from many countries, not just from Germany, have made Berlin
their home, at least for a time.
Their goal is not the apparent reproduction of reality, but rather to liberate the depicted reality from its usual temporal and
semantic contexts and to give it meaning in new combinations. Not the copy of
reality, but concepts of reality, in which an interpretation reveals itself to be
only one of many possibilities. The option of retelling is rarely applicable to
these forms of expression, and identifying the recognizable usually does not get one
very far either. The viewer is forced to think about himself and his own
experiences; only then does the pleasure of viewing emerge, albeit without any
guarantee that the enigma will be completely revealed.
