Long Durational Performance
by Márcio Carvalho
Saturday 28.08.2010 - Beginning at 12h at Markthalle
Inside the Performance Festival M5 - Differential
at Turmstraße - Moabit
Creating a map of actions between several public spaces in Turmstraße, the artist will try to behave a quotidian that will be outside of people daily life.
The objective is to change the rhythm of the street in several levels, causing “disturbance” by creating actions outside the context of the street.
Reconstructing the quotidian will create other possibility of life in the street.
Flying with the feet on the ground
by Marisa Benjamim
SATURDAY 14.08 - 20:30
at Hotel25, Wrangelstrasse 25, 10997 Berlin - U1 Görlitzer Bhf
Looking through the poetic, and mixing performance with the construction of objects, the latest work of Benjamim suspends the concept of gravity, here understood not so much as the physical phenomenon, but as an uncontrollable movement of dreams against the real.
Embedded in an intimate environment, dominated by simplicity and beauty, the work reveals the consciousness of reality as an understanding of something that needs to be seen from the inside through several layers of the subjects reality; in short, an attempt to approach an essential point from which the individual is established and operates its own concept of reality.
NEO SAUDADE
happening by Lúcia Vicente, Márcio Carvalho, Roberto Afonso and Tiago Margaça
“Neo saudade” was the form that the artists found to translate the feeling of Saudade, in Berlin. Now it became a different feeling in a different time.
As foreigners in a different country we chose this word to talk about our home country, how we miss it, the food, the family. How we want to erase as well some “saudades”, how we have “saudade” of Berlin when we are in Portugal and how we are affected by all of it.

BloodSugarBreath
Mike Edgerton is a composer from US involved with acoustical and perceptual research into voices and instruments. This research into voice is designed to explore the limits of sound production of the voice – often focusing on vocal multiphonics.
Currently, Mike Edgerton, is in the beginning stages of a voice science research project at the University of Vienna. This project will compare two exceptional modes of voice behaviour: singing in the whistle register vs. singing using a glottal whistle.
Mike Edgerton made a residence of 2 months in Hotel25, where he developed “BloodSugarBreath”. This performance will be based on several pieces from Kurt Schwitters and Emmett Williams and originals by himself.
“BloodSugarBreath” is a rare form of composing and performing. The notions of music composing are challenged by his work. It is a special way of experimental music that will involve body and finest voice skills. His work will be accompanied by several pieces of video made for this performance, by Márcio Carvalho.”

video instalation by Ricardo Brito at Hotel25
Friday 14.05.2010
Ricardo Brito is a Portuguese artist based in Portugal working between Barcelona, Berlin, Lisbon and Porto. The artist made 2 months residence in Hotel25 where he capture more then 24 hours of film having the objective of creating a new piece for his project called “Genoma”. After 6 months of post production Ricardo is presenting his work in a format of a Video Lecture. He will show his experience during the residence time, and the final videos that will compose the newest part of “Genoma”.
“There are five states of house: soul, body, home, city and nature / earth / space. An idea of an area bounded by a collective identity, which inhabits a cocoon, an extension of our soul, a place of support, an hotel, a number of a door, a door for the reflection and evasion. We have such relationship so deeply internalized that people live it like real again, here we can reach this state of suspension, meditation, the house of the soul. All the houses are treated the same way as the body is, washed, fed, a skin of protected memory. All the people gathered in a city have the same relationship that the ideas have in the soul, or the soul with the body and its organs, may the city regenerate, so it is again inhabited.
In Berlin we have the city’s death and the birth of a new city, Berlin is not Germany. In Berlin we started at Time Zero.”

Our WELT Not Your Brand!
Installation/Drawing
Vernissage 16 January | 18pm
The exhibition articulates both sculptural and graphic dimensions, presenting the recent development of Bruno Jamaica’s work.
The work unite these two languages – Sculpture and Drawing – in a mode of spatial occupation that, behind a relatively conventional setting, playfully defies conventions. The main piece is a large scale sculpture, made of digital black and white prints and elastic bands – stretched in situ, across the whole space of the exhibition room – resulting in a progressive occupation of the space of the Hotel25 by the vision and the body of the artist. The drawings and an installation are metaphoric shapes thinking about another world is possible without global destructive brands. Our natural world is more important than your brands that make you the person that you are and by consequence make the world less Humane. This installation of Bruno Jamaica is the first work after his experience lived in the recent Klima forum`09 in Copenhagen.

"One desperate woman"
If you don't go out in the woods, nothing will ever happen and your life will never begin. Go out in the woods, go out. (The wolf’s eyelash, Clarissa Pinkola Estes)
"One desperate woman" is a physical performance that deals with the domestic violence against women.It is based on intercultural myths and songs of the Hispano American tradition and it is the story of a young woman who lives under a domestic dictatorship.
The public rehearsal of "One desperate woman" on the 25th November 2009 (International Day For The Elimination Of Violence Against Women), in collaboration with the art residency HOTEL 25, is an itinerant performance, in form of a ritual, based on a traditional ritual of marriage and on the popular legend of the Hispano American culture la llorona. The time of the performance evolves backwards and the action evokes the reality of a dream.

"Da mesma forma que os continentes se afastaram por movimentos tectónicos, os espaços verdes de Berlim estão prestes a procurarem-se. Eles estão afastados por cimentos e betões quadrados, mas conhecem-se, pressentem-se e desejam um encontro.Pelo céu, lançam sementes e segredos entre si, nesse espaço sem fronteiras."
