Gernot Wieland works in the media of film, drawing, and lecture performance. His work combines historical accounts with personal memories, merging the documentary and fiction. This results in complex works that seemingly incidentally, yet excitingly and often tragicomically sketch the state of a society. The video work, which will premiere at the KINDL, represents an extension of his previous work in its remembrance of suppressed, unheard, and forgotten voices.

Curator: Kathrin Becker
