XI – The Film
Together with the artists Georg Nussbaumer and Aliénor Dauchez XI – ein Polytop für Iannis Xenakis, a series of concerts and performances on places and streets of Berlin, was shown on two days in July 2011 as an hommage to the Greek composer and architect Iannis Xenakis.
Filmmaker Stephan Talneau and his team followed us through the rain and reworked their shootings into an impressive film. He found a visual language which carries on the music and develops from different perspectives a particular dramatic art and interpretive level of the project.
"… Im grauen deutschen Regen entstand (…) eine Klanginstallation von monumental-mythologischer Wucht. (English: In the grey German rain a sound installation of monumental mythological impact arised.)" Peter Uehling, Berliner Zeitung, 04 July 2011
