Regard fatigué

Sound and video installation in the ground corridor of Schloss Solitude.

The corridor is generally used to lead to the exhibition rooms which is then closed by the construction of a binnacle for the spectator. The two screens show some buildings filmed in former West and East Berlin. The stereotype of modernist architecture of both parts of the city seem equivalent : nothing reveals a peculiar style according to the diffrent political history of the town as if modernity had been a common paradigme for both systems.
The sound is composed by the juxtaposition of house cooking noises and a Christophe Marchand-Kiss’ poem, reading during the cooking time.
