Brief History Of Time, A

Synopsis:
Based on Stephen Hawking's bestselling book, a Brief History of Time is about the universe, time and the urge to explore that leads humankind on a potentially infinite search for knowledge and ultimate answers. embarking in groups of twelve, audiences begin a visceral journey around the spaces of Tramway. they encounter performance, animation and a sound and video installation, before indulging in a sinister game of cards which separates winners from losers. Winners are led one by one into the vast pitch darkness of Tramway 1, where faint images emerge from the darkness, before being led blindfolded into a nearby church. Here they are reunited with the losers, who have been on a journey of their own, for the final sequence.

Entartet

Synopsis:
entartet creates a space to listen, and to imagine what can no longer be seen. 75 years ago an infamous art exhibition opened in Munich. On display were images and sculptures, which had been raided from public galleries by government officials. the organizers ridiculed the shown works and marked their creators as degenerate  and dangerous. For the included artists there were to be bitter consequences. entartet uses text of the exhibition's original guide book and creates an audio guide to empty spaces  and to a moment in history. It creates an environment in which to imagine an infamous event and a world in which it could take place. entartet deals with the very dark side of populism and state-sponsored intolerance and creates a space for an ultimately very personal experience.
