Swiss artist Karin Müller, who lives in Berlin, presents a night of strong emotions at the message salon. In a screening, Karin Müller shows an entertaining series of her latest found footage video clips. The artist has tracked down, isolated and manipulated sequences from feature films. Thematically, the videos take a tongue-in-cheek look at the rituals and strategies of the male world in film. The film snippets accentuate the content of the well-known source films and, through reduction, manipulation and abstraction, become independent video pieces.
Karin Müller has invited Berlin-based English artist PlanningToRock, aka Janine Rostron, to Zurich. The musician combines the worlds of personal stories and abstract identities in her music and videos. Her voice is accompanied by melodic structures of hammering piano chords, electric guitar and drums.
