Michal Kosakowski - Profile |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| (Profile only availible in german - translated by machine) Between two thousand and six year nineteen and Michal Kosakowski forty-nine produced short films about murder. Forty-nine murders, devised by residents of the world capital of morbidity, Vienna year nineteen began Kosakowski only relatives and friends, then ask artists, musicians, and later actors to the inside to the murder fantasies. Within a decade, he produced 49 short films. It is essential that the killing fantasies are implemented by the respondents themselves and represented in the 49 videos. Intensive cooperation between Kosakowski and had his fictional murderers and victims on the script, the drama and the theater can be. Directing, cinematography, editing and special effects of all 49 films Michal Kosakowski himself has done. Amazingly, the violent fantasies that seem to be actually fed one and all from the medial omnipresence of explicit violence in film and television: None of the 160 cast has a criminal record or has ever been involved in such acts of real crime. Nevertheless, poisoning, torture, suicide, execution, ritual murder, violence by and against women, men, children, sexually, politically, or take from mental abnormalities motivated murders uncensored on the emotions of the recipients for. The installation "Forty Nine" will be shown in the Lothringer13 in February and March 2007 for the first time: When you enter the glare cube with dimensions of 5x4x3 feet, you see the one, infinite in all directions mirrored, 49-part HD split screen against. The fact of interpersonal violence, here in the aesthetics of the present, is also reflected in the emotions visible on the faces of the visitors are and are being mirrored to infinity. 49 Examples of fictitious murder meet head-on the real emotion of visitors to the installation. The common experience - what emotion whatsoever - creates intimacy, and it is this intimacy is another constituent part of "Forty Nine": the confrontation of the individual with himself in the face of the most heinous violence. Michal Kosakowski allows us to experience a taboo of our time and our Western society, the death: When we see only death, and until further notice, in the garb of contemporary media violence staging.
