CIRCLE
#7 - RAILWAY ROUNDHOUSE. BERLIN. 5 - 6 JULY 2010 / part of PICNIC10
: BERLIN
After the year of absence we are back to our Railway Roundhouse.
Little traces of the last year work were slightly visible around
the space. Somebody took my nylon line, i left here, and suspended
it right in the middle of the Roundhouse's dome, high above
- how only monkey-man could get there. "CHALLENGE"
was written in white paint, right in the middle of the space
on the dusty floor.
"FUCK YOU"
My love I'd build a tower to reach the sky. I'd build a wonderful
structure just here in the middle of this space. it'd be light
and glorious with sun light shining through walls made of finest
fabric of waived tapestry. Loom it up!
CIRCLE#7 has arrived from some previous works at the Site and
from the Site itself. It's build graffiti. All blankets left
behind by homeless people, rotten coffee bags, DDR propaganda
posters and all other soft filthy textiles, the soft archeological
remains of raise, glory and fall of the Railway territory were
collected to create soft tower of beautiful texture and spontaneous
colours waived together. A blend of craft and graffiti.
it felt like very wrong to do things right and soft construction
was constantly collapsing and structural weakness was attracting
new and new layers increasing depth of the work. Each piece
had colour, texture and story and put together they were screaming.
The search for materials, around the Railway Territory, gave
a collection of found sounds: highway - railway - aircrafts
- metal - broken glass - birds - water - announcements from
nearby station...
Tower took shape of shapeless nest, hopeless shelter, vessel
of survival in the big space of the Roundhouse. or some other
space of some imaginary future were cozy world of accidentally
found beauty was build by Mother-Terrorist..

build from remains of smashed brick partition. Build in about
1 hour turning a pile of rubble into construction. It looks
like before the wall was smashed it was covered with grafity
and bricks looked like bits of puzzles i didn't try to put together
but picking up every brick contemplating the diference |

made four sketches with chalk on pieces of rubber i had found
and put them on display with a price tag 100 euros scratched
nearby and plastic cup to put money in. in Roundhouse I met
a homeless man with a suitcase looking for a rough-sleep corner.
He told me he's a structural engineer and came here to admire
steel structure of the Roundhouse, as I understood from 3 languages
we had a conversation in. I tryed to imagine what would i do
in faraway country with no language and no place to sleep. I
would draw some silly pictures on bits of rubbish to sale them
to get some beer and tabaco. i would draw "figurative"
pictures as perhaps nobody would pay small money for abstract
art. So i did - four on pieces of rubber and a few more on paper.
after 3 days my plastic cup was hopelessly empty empty empty.

BERLIN
DANCER. Live Drawing Session at the Railway Territory. Mixed
Media on Paper
Berlin Dancer came to our PICNIC at the Railway Territory. She
was dancing "Repetition" improvisation. She had amaising
black streatchy trouthers she could stretch up to her neck and
she was submerging and emerging again from those trouthers doing
repetative circles on the concrete stage under open sky with
a constant flow of aircrafts heading for Tiegel. On some stage
of the performance she abandoned her trouthers and i didn't
know what to draw any more. 2 days later, 3am at night we were
changing from U-Ban to S-Ban at Potsdammen Platz, crossing the
road at the place we not supposed to and were almost run over
by the same Berlin Dancer on the bicycle |
