Programm 3 | program 3 Sehnsüchte | Longings (die gebannten und die entspannten Blicke) | 7 filme/video | 90 min | ||||||
|
The films of this program show atmospheric condensations as an expression of present frame of minds and moods at its best. The looks are partly turned backwards to one's own childhood and origin in a nostalgic way and partly fixed forward in a hopeful and expectant way. All these films bear an almost passionate melancholy in view of the irretrievable-past or the ultimate unattainable. (MB) [deutsch] |

Maxi Bade Jahrtausendwende | 4 min | 1996 | Video (HI8) | col | sound | D/Köln | |||||
|
We look at a flock of sheep that stares at us. The view doesn't change. In the lower half of the picture we can recognize a digital clock that shows the count-down. The distance between the sheep and the viewers cannot be bridged over despite the intensive sight-contact. Do both sides stare at each other or do they observe an object that lies between them- maybe the projection spot? Sheep and on-looker (viewers) stare at each other really tense without being able to get into contact. The flock remains automative, chewing, grazing and staring.
Maxi Bade was born in Munich in 1975. The year 1995 he spent in the Ukraine. East Europe is the topical base of his work. He receives a grant of the German Academic Exchange Service in 2000 and goes to Tomsk in Siberia. Mainly he works installative with photographs, video and performance.

x Programm 3 Sehnsüchte | Longings (die gebannten und die entspannten Blicke) Die Filme dieses Programms zeigen atmosphärische Verdichtungen als Ausdruck von höchst gegenwärtigen Stimmungen und Befindlichkeiten. Teils sind die Blicke nostalgisch rückwärtsgewandt auf die eigene Kindheit und Herkunft, teils aber auch hoffnungsvoll und voller Erwartung nach vorne gerichtet. Allen diesen Filmen ist eine fast leidenschaftliche Melancholie zu eigen, angesichts von Unwiederbringlich-Vergangenem oder letztlich Unerreichbarem. (MB)
