Exhibition text „Liquid Fertilizer“, Kunstverein Freiburg:

A mud-covered plastic foil spreads out on the floor of the exhibition spa-
ce. The surface smells of damp soil, which could be thawed permafrost.
Various objects complement the scenery: bird masks and tennis socks laid
on stones - both visible traces of the performance that took place on the
opening evening at the Kunstverein. The bird masks are reminiscent of
plague doctor‘s masks worn since the early modern age to protect against
the deadly epidemic. The special head shape of the masks also reminds us
of David Cronenberg‘s film „the fly“, in which the protagonist slowly trans-
forms into an insect. Together with the paintings leaning against the wall,
the installation „be afraid. be very afraid“ speculates about a scenario in
which released bacteria, viruses or other microorganisms now come to life
thawed out. It remains to be seen whether it will result in an apocalyptic
catastrophe. The deposited Nike socks point to fashionable macro trends
of a highly technical consumer society and create an additional narrative
extension of the installation.

5            chase

                                                                      A two-meter-high sandglass replaces the conductor and
                                                                      leads the musicians through the composition clepsydra.
                                                                      The music score consisted of tasks, conventional notation
                                                                      and images.

                                                                      documentation: https://youtu.be/SMk2ejPVuhA

             Drums vs. guitar

             The potential prey (guitar) will be pursued (rushed)
             until it can no longer escape because it is exhausted
             or caught up and thus placed so that it can be shot. A
             hunt does not always have to lead to the success of
             the agitator. Cheetahs (drummers) often break off a
             chase because they are quickly exhausted.....

Exhibition Views: Kunsthalle Basel, Every Contact Leaves A Trace

               A performer plays a concert on a water basin.
               A drawing knitted as a wool jacquard is the notation for the perfor-
               mer.
               The basin is microphoned and the audio signals through
               Effects manipulated.
               Five masked people film and photograph the performance.
               The coloured water leaves traces on the plastic sheet.

               Inspiration is the water percussion of the Baka Forest People.

               For this work I operated as a director and asked various artists and
               musicians for a certain collaboration, e. g. for composition, perfor-
               mance or set design.

Die Bande performing The White Cube Hotel, 2016
Hotel-project
with Lea Rüegg, Fidel Stadelmann and Marc Norbert Hörler
The art collective „Die Bande“ used the institution „Ausstellungs-
                                               raum Klingental“ in Basel to run a hotel during the Art Basel Week.

                                               We used the internet platform „Air BnB“ to look for hotel guests.

                                               One overnight stay cost 30 francs.
                                               We were fully booked at the end.

                                               Our offer:
                                               Sleeping tents, lockers, self-made showers in the garden, breakfast
                                               in the morning and a bar in the evening.
                                               Two members of the collective spent the entire night in the hotel.

                                               During the day from 12:00-18:00 the hotel was open for visitors.
