Julika Rudelius screening - Goethe Institute

still: Dressage

The Netherlands Media Art Institute together with |Cine|Sonic| proudly present a compilation of videos by renowned German artist Julika Rudelius with a special soundtrack composed and performed live by Robert Lippok (To Rococo Rot).

Julika Rudelius was born in 1968 in Cologne and is currently based in New York and Amsterdam. Her work has been exhibited in various solo and group shows in Europe. Her videos, usually showing people in 'everyday' interactions, are marked by an ambiguity between 'staged' and 'spontaneous' situations. Her works look on sexuality, social behavior patterns as well as on physical and verbal communication, especially with respect to the question how these contribute to the creation and reproduction of social hierarchy.

Robert Lippok is the co-founder of the group To Rococo Rot. Since 1996 the group's releases have appeared on various labels, among others on Kitty-Yo, City Slang and Staubgold. In addition, To Rococo Rot created sound recordings for visual artists, such as Olaf Nicolai, Doug Aitken and Takehito Koganezawa. Lippok has released two solo albums, Falling into Komeït (2004) and Robot (2006), and is an active visual artist as well. http://www.myspace.com/robertlippok
