5th berlin biennial for contemporary art
05.04. – 15.06.2008
When things cast no shadow
When things cast no shadow, the 5th berlin biennial for contemporary art, curated by Adam Szymczyk and
Elena Filipovic, brings together artists from different generations and nationalities in an exhibition by day
and night that aims to trace the diversity of art practices today.
Eschewing a singular theme, form, or temporality, and determined instead by a critical engagement with
artists’ processes, When things cast no shadow could be said to take the form of an open structure in five
movements without a plot.
The day part of the 5th berlin biennial will be on view at four distinct venues and include mostly newly
commissioned works by 50 artists, while the night part of the show will feature still more artists and cultural
producers in 63 nightly events taking place in locations spread across the once-divided city.
The exhibition spaces of KW Institute for Contemporary Art, founded in 1991 in Berlin-Mitte will hold,
among other projects, films by Babette Mangolte, Michel Auder, and Patricia Esquivias as well as an
intervention by Ahmet Öğüt that comments on state power and its means of control. The attic will be
turned into a studio/installation activated by Tris Vonna-Michell’s storytelling.
The iconic glass hall of Mies van der Rohe’s ultra-modernist Neue Nationalgalerie in former West Berlin
has inspired various responses from artists. Among them, a film installation by Susanne M. Winterling
explores the water condensation that flaws van der Rohe’s masterpiece, while Gabriel Kuri builds up a
participatory sculpture that reorganizes one of the building’s regular service operations. Cyprien Gaillard
brings an unpretentious public sculpture from a housing project in Paris to the terrace of the museum thus
positioning a symbol for one failed social-architectural ideal on the grounds representing an opposed,
triumphant architectural ideal.
The outdoor exhibition site of the Skulpturenpark Berlin_Zentrum, in the area formerly adjoining the Berlin
Wall, presents, among other works, a new community-based project by Kateřina Šedá, who goes over the
fences that separate neighbors in her home village of Líšeň in the Czech Republic. Lars Laumann screens
a film about a woman who married the Berlin Wall, while Ania Molska installs a sculpture used as a prop in
her new film.
The first of five alternating, artist-curated solo shows at the Schinkel Pavillon will feature works of Paris-
based Swiss-born designer Janette Laverrière, presented by Nairy Baghramian. It will open on March 20,
2008, preceding the official opening of the 5th berlin biennial on April 5 and upsetting the demand for a
single, spectacular biennial beginning.
The night part of the biennial, entitled Mes nuits sont plus belles que vos jours (My nights are more
beautiful than your days), comprises 63 nocturnal acts involving artists and other thinkers and takes place
throughout the city. Neuro-scientist Olaf Blanke demonstrates an out-of-body experiment, at the
encouragement of artist Melvin Moti. The curatorial collective WHW holds a lecture on Modernism in the
former Yugoslavia, and Augusto Boal, founder of the Theater of the Oppressed and this year’s Nobel
Peace Prize candidate, runs a workshop according to his context-sensitive teaching method. Cameron
Jamie screens his recent film JO at the Volksbühne am Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz with a live score by
Japanese noise artist Keiji Haino, and more, night after night.
A comprehensive publication has been conceived as an interpretative tool in parallel with the 5th berlin
biennial. It includes a visual and textual anthology of source material submitted by participating artists.
The visitors guided tours program Secret Service offers diverse formats of made-to-measure exhibition
tours that enable the visitors to investigate the biennial from different angles. Further information and
booking at www.berlinbiennale.de.

This exhibition marks a moment in FACT’s 2008 Human Futures: my world programme where one of the world’s most
celebrated contemporary artists considers the human condition – from a conspicuously female position. Directing
and often playing the lead in her own works, Pipilotti Rist turned to the do-it-yourself medium of video because of its
closeness and intimacy with the subject. At a significant juncture in the artist’s career, as she prepares for a departure
from the gallery to the big screen of cinema, this exhibition draws together a set of the prevailing concerns within the
artist’s work to date.
With a trademark sensual slickness, her work explores ideas of fearlessness, the body, nature and spirituality. In this
UK debut of Gravity Be My Friend, the final part of a series launched to great acclaim with a site-specific
installation in a church at the 51st Venice Bienniale, she turns to the age-old religious concern of a paradise lost,
equating a global consciousness of climate change with the fall of man in the Garden of Eden.

Play is a state of mind, a place of imaginings. When we play we exist in a state of suspension between the real and the possible. Artists seduce the oberver's eye and the mind into joining a play already in progress. The Gallery at O Born Contemporary provides a showcase for this exchange: our first year of programing is built upon the word play and all of its possibilities. We take great pleasure in presenting our premier exhibition to our clients and the broader community.

Far West is an experimental project that will transform Arnolfini from an arts venue into a distinctive ‘concept store’, that explores the shifting of the economic centre of the world to the East.
The Far West concept store will provide customers with the experience of interacting with, producing, and then purchasing, a selection of specially branded products, designed by artists or inspired by artists’ projects from ornaments to music, comics, food, toys, and artworks. In the process, customers will gain an insight into the nature of economy, cultural hegemony, the history of certain products, and the marketing potential of regional identities.

Thank you to Stefan Meretz for taking the time to engage at length
with my essay, "Copyfarleft, Copyjustright and the Iron Law of
Copyright Earnings."
The main argument advanced in the essay is that artists can not
earn a living from exclusivity of "intellectual property" and that
that neither copyleft licenses like the GPL, nor "copyjustright"
frameworks such as the creative commons, can help.
The only thing, I believe can help, is workers' self
organisation, an approach that is popular among socialists
from anarchist, especially syndicalist, tendencies, and is also
supported by those who promote "Market Socialism" and
"Economic Democracy."
Unfortunately, Stefan doesn't really engage in any of the
arguments made in my essay directly, he is not for instance
arguing that either copyleft, copyright or copyjustright does
create the possibility for artists to make a living, therefore
from my point of view we seem to be in agreement on the main
claims of the essay. In fact, I could not find a single argument

If the government is to be believed, we are undergoing a streak of freakily bad luck. First the credit crunch, then astronomical fuel price hikes and now a global food crisis. Could all these by any chance be connected?
