A trans featuring EX-MÊKH: PROBE
Haus der Statistik, Berlin (D), December 8 until December 31, 2019
The exhibition and weekend of performances are featured by A TRANS at the Haus Statistik as part of the ‚Pioneer Uses‘ program organized by The Network of the independent Berlin Project Spaces and Initiatives in collaboration with Haus der Statistik.
In this exhibition EX-MÊKH will show their inspiration and working method, the themes that have always been important to the collective. The preceding acts together with the collective of KRAATZ during the performance weekend will be used as fertilizer for the process that will eventually result in an exhibition about the creating of an exhibition.
A Weekend of Performance
Saturday December 6
16.00 h- KRAATZ (Marian Wijnvoord and Forbes Morlock): Writing on Art
17.00 h – Kees Koomen: Tssssss K-BAM
In the context of writing The Diaries and writing down what enters my senses I will now try to visualize the sounds that I hear. Working together with improvising musician Yorgos Dimitriades who will improvise on percussion I will try to translate this sound into images.
17:30 Ellen Rodenberg and Yorgos Dimitriadis: Feed
In this “In between time”- space of the Haus der Statistiek I want to do a performance in which I will show a working attitude. It originates from a barrel full of experiences in my studio, daily life and education which I feel to be socially and constructively useful in my functioning as a human being.
18.00 h – Saturday December 6 – Maarten Schepers: Stelle
Can we live
in any place on Earth and call it Home? What is home? Is it the stuff that
keeps us warm? Is it our past we recognize in our surroundings? Is it in the
place we act to keep on living? Schepers will try to elaborate on this question
in the performance he proposes.
18:30 Yorgos Dimitriadis DUO: Das Sahnehäubchen
Sunday
December 7 – EX-MÊKH: The Act
EX-MÊKH was invited to make an exhibition in the space
on the invitation of A-Trans which will be shown during the month of December.
We came together as a collective that wants to think about the nature and
process of making exhibitions. For this occasion the opening of the exhibition
will be a theatrical performance about our practice. We will start a process in front of the public
culminating in an exhibition.
In this exhibition EX-MÊKH will show their inspiration
and working method, the themes that have always been important to the
collective. The preceding acts during the performance weekend will be used as
fertilizer for the process that will eventually result in an exhibition about
the creating of an exhibition.
