The UdK’s Institute for Film presents the most recent monographs by its Art and Media graduates to be released on their own DVD label, which has grown to encompass 40 different titles over the last ten years. FELDARBEIT draws on an open experimental set-up to measure the proximity and distance between director Henrike Meyer and her father. The subject of PERFORMANCE (Kornelia Kugler, Hanna Bergfors) is the work of an artists’ collective who are attempting to get a performance project off the ground in precarious conditions and deals with such themes as love, work, and identity. AUS WESTLICHEN RICHTUNGEN is a reflection upon the fuzzy concept of “West Germany”. Taking fragments of memory as a starting point, Juliane Henrich collects images of the present in which retain traces of the past and contrasts these with quotes and her own thoughts gleaned from greater distance. By pulling on 80 colorfully patterned sleeveless overalls, Jeanette Goßlau explores the legacy of her grandmother in the installation KÄTHES SCHÜRZEN. (bs) (2.5.)
