Andy Warhol and Joseph Beuys, great white art men of the 20th century, were conjured up as checkered shirted zombies in a carefully outfitted haunted house, a space populated by wild and free associations on money, markets and the European Union, constructed from some debris salvaged from the ruins of Western theatre.

She She Pop Work for Live Art Danmark 2005 “Warum tanzt ihr nicht?” at Berliner Luft 2 Warum tanzt ihr nicht? The ballroom is a promise, a place of great anticipations and secret desires and – as desires so often do not suffice – a place of hidden plans, old and new strategies and their spectacular staging. She She Pop turned the theatre space of Kanonhallen into a dance floor and showed the ballroom with all its myths as a pitfall of pathetically exaggerated expectations. Fantasy and reality diverged dramatically. Every dancer – prom queen, wallflower, gentleman or gate crasher – was caught in their role. The audience moved back […]
Plan B Work for Live Art Danmark 2009 “A Bicycle Made for You” at Berliner Luft 4 A Bicycle Made for You The Berlin based performance duo Plan B created a special Copenhagen version of their tandem riding performance. Each spectator was greeted personally by one of the performers and led to a tandem that was propped up and stationary in a bike stand. The other performer was already on the front seat of the tandem, ready to go with a small screen on their back, which then became the site of the film performance. For the Copenhagen version created for “Berliner Luft 4”, Plan B asked the city’s cycle […]

On Air Work for Live Art Danmark 2007 “Hotel Radio” at Berliner Luft 3. Hotel Radio In a certain hotel plans were made to broadcast, from a tower on the roof of the hotel. Radio broadcasts. The name of this hotel was the Hotel Radio. Richard Foremann Hotel Radio is presented as quasi “talk radio”. Sequences vary from quiz shows to phone-ins, on topics ranging from garbage to duck hunting. Fast switching between segments, technical confusion, interruptions, and silence create extreme changes in the atmosphere of the piece. Hotel Radio observes a single person in a game with different communication and information systems, and documents the loneliness which lies beneath. […]
Noah Holtwiesche Works for Live Art Denmark2007 “Signifying Nothing” at Berliner Luft 32014 “Aibi/Alias” at Samtalekøkken, Inkonst Malmö Signifying NothingStanding close to his audience in a small basement room, after a lengthy introduction in which he explains the title (referring to the number zero), Noah informs the audience about his aim to establish an energy flow between them and a piece of steel, and what to do to end the performance. Noah then ceremoniously takes of his suitcoat, hangs it up, and leaves through the door behind him. Through the door he left open we see him in the next room, where he repeatedly lifts a length of steel beam […]
