Experimental Shorts, Short Experiments

To coincide with Isabell Heimerdinger's "The New World Joy Garden" exhibition at the Galerie Mehdi Chouakri, we are showing a selection of her film works. Isabell Heimerdinger's art revolves around the phenomenon of film in a range of different ways – the language of film, those who play an active role in it, its recipients and its economic modes of operation are all up for discussion in her work. Heimerdinger makes use of such artistic strategies as reenactment, conceptual decomposition and sculptural setting. As such, her work doesn't just manage to explore the boundaries between cinematic fiction and "reality" in many different ways but also demonstrates the parallels between the worlds of film and art.
