Installation im Belgischen Zollhaus

Beteiligte Künstler*Innen | Petra Geiser, Roland Hermanns, Maren Hoch, Justina Jablonska, Steph Neuberger, Ana Sous, Wolfgang in der Wiesche.

Die Installation im Belgischen Zollhäuschen spielt mit der Begrenzung von Interieur zu Exterieur – durch die Zirkulation und Bewegung der Ballons im Inneren entsteht ein lebendiges Wesen, welches nach Außen dringt. Die Erfahrung der Grenze bleibt dynamisch, spielt sich zwischen Leichtigkeit und Schwere ab. Denn die Grenze zum Innenraum, einsehbar doch nicht überwindbar, nur von Außen zugänglich, wird durch einzelne Elemente aufgebrochen und ermöglicht so neue Perspektiven.

70th Anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights
A World Wide Video-art Project!
On 10 December 1948 the UN-Council adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Each year this day is marked as the International Day of Human Rights. To mark this years 70th anniversary Dutch Foundation White Cube created an art-project, that allows artists and audiences from each corner of the world to celebrate this event.

Using the internet artists sent in their art-videos about human rights to Foundation White Cube. A jury selected 21 videos for this project and on its turn the foundation sends these videos back into the world again. Venues in Nepal, Italy, Pakistan, Germany, Hong Kong and the Netherlands will show these videos to their audiences for free.

Creator of this project, Jeroen van Paassen explains:”To celebrate human rights it is essential that there are no barriers. Entrance fee can be a barrier for some audiences. We offer these videos for free to our partners, so that they can show them for free. Human Rights are universal, therefore it should be inclusive.”

2016 was the first year Global Videos was organized. Now in 2018 it is held for the 2nd time with 21 art-videos. Each of these videos last maximum 4 minutes.

The participating artists are (in random order)
Wolfgang in der Wiesche & Nikolaus Gojowczyk-Groon Germany / Eca Eps Nigeria / Mohammad Bin Lamin Libya / Tetsushi Higashino Japan / Danny Germansen Denmark / Pernille Lonstrup Denmark / Ehab Aziz Egypt / Beck & Collin Stafford USA / Lisi Prada Spain / Natercia Chang Macau SAR / Selene Citron & Luca Lunardi Italy / Iris Poljan & Rahman Hak-Hagir Croatia & Austria / Maria Felix Korporal the Netherlands / Dik Bol the Netherlands / Karin van der Molen the Netherlands / Abdoul-Ganiou Dermani Togo / Rahman Hak-Hagir & Andreas Draxler Austria / Sylvia Toy St Louis USA / Joyce Overheul the Netherlands / Gilivanka Kedzior France / Elisabetta Di Sopra Italy
