Berlin is
Bart Baele, Yves Degryse and Caroline Rochlitz. Characteristic of Berlin is her
interdisciplinary work methods. Berlin collaborates with diverse artistic as
well as academic fields and while focusing on a specific research question, she
engages different media depending on the content of the project. Berlin chooses
to present their work on a variety of different circuits: theatres, museums,
festivals, on location… The basis of future projects will continue to be a city
or region somewhere in the world.
In 2003
Berlin started the series ‘Holocene’ (the current geological period), of which
“JERUSALEM” was the first. On three screens we see a penetrating portrayal of
one of the most complex cities in the world. For “Holocene 2 – IQALUIT”, an Ivo
Michiels text, a film and a live telephone connection depict the capital of the
Inuit in Northern Canada. “BONANZA” [“Holocene 3”], which is shown at
steirischer herbst 2008. Berlin is currently working on “Holocene 4 – MOSCOW”.
