Pongress Berlin 2010 brings groups from Manchester, Paris,
Newcastle, Washington DC, London, and (hopefully) Stockholm to Berlin, where a local contingency will host the event. Their mission is to
celebrate the art of Music, Drinking & Table Tennis.

A Proscenium is the architectural element in western theatres that not only defines the spatial division between stage and audience, but also describes a history of viewing and representing. The proscenium arch functions as a large frame that only allows a selected gaze and covers what is ‑offstage. The artists Kerstin Honeit, Ofri Lapid and Fernando Nino-Sánchez investigate the ‑proscenium using video work, light installations, photos and objects in its function of being a mirror axis between object and recipient, as well as a border between being ‑on stage and ‑off stage.

Extraschrot, die Künstlergruppe um Katharina Arndt und Gero Neumeister, stellt erneut einige ihrer Werke aus, diesmal u.a. die Lichtinstallation “Vorsprung durch Technik I” aus dem Jahr 2009 (Klick auf das Bild öffnet eine Animation).

Das Stockholm-Syndrom

Grafikskolan Final Show at Atelierhof Kreuzberg in Berlin.

A lot of people in other countries think of the Stockholm syndrome when they hear of Stockholm. The Stockholm syndrome is a psychological condition where hostages take their captors’ side against the police. The syndrome is named after a historical hostage drama in connection with an attempted bank robbery in Stockholm in 1973.
