heisst dieser Platz?, 2006
My Breath, 2007
Cinema
version
Viktor
Alimpiev, whose work Summer Lightings was shown at the 4th Berlin
Biennale in the Former Jewish Girls' School, combines different
artistic fields in his cinematic work: visual arts, music, theater
and dance. In his films he has worked with the human body and more
recently with song and speech. During the 2005 Venice Theatre Biennale
he directed the play We're Talking about Music in Italian
language together with Marian Zhunin. In Linz in 2006 he created
the video Wie heisst dieser Platz? in German.
As part of the exhibition series "Art and Music" Art Laboratory
Berlin is pleased to show two recent works, where the medium of
film visualizes a full framework of references about speech, song
and bodily movement, within which the concept of sculpture plays
a vital role.
