Please explain it to me I watched it all, but didn't get what it means... I'd love to understand why I should be impressed, moved or anything, please explain it
Led here by the NYT article about the artist being award the highest prize, I am curious to see what led to the judges decision. Perhaps I need to know about the references to better under this work, as I just don't get it.
Here's an excerpt from the press text: “In a society that conceives guilt not in religious terms but as a matter of individual responsibility, that considers ill health not as divine punishment but as a personal failure, the body becomes capital and money the measure of all things. The body is a consumer item, handed over to the vagaries of the free market. Market rationality decides whether a body is worthy of protection - or whether it falls within the remit of a necropolitics. Capitalism brings the reign of money to its highest stage. Like in Goethe’s play Faust, we trade something that does not exist. The soul does not exist, the products of the financial sector do not exist and yet - or because of all this the system functions. Only by forming an association of bodies, only by occupying space can resistance take hold. On the balustrades and fences, underground and on the roof, the performers conquer and occupy the room, the house, the pavilion, the institution, the state.”
I'm all for political art. But this is a PR press release, and the biggest problem is that the performers DON'T conquer the room. They POSE in it, waiting for the weekend to come round to disappear into Berghain once more.
@@vernissagetv 😂 The artist is just like “These suckers call me a world renowned artist, yet don’t even realize I’m just a lazy procrastinator who takes my shirt off and sits motionless”.
The specious responses to this post are an effective reminder of how poorly the internet conveys information. Only after seeing the show can you offer an opinion - unless you're Trump.
I completly agree with you on this! A youtube-movie can't replace the real performance and the oppressing atmosphere in the pavillion. I loved it and stayed for nearly 2 hours. Same answer to all those people visiting expositions through their smartphones, taking selfies and gather 'personale trophees'. LOOK at the artwork instead of taking pictures of it.
di biennio in biennio, sempre le solite banalità, la solita presentita spazzatura, sempre le solite cose che non fanno né pensare né provare alcun sentimento che non sia di noia avvilita e avvilente.
ce n'est pas de l'art mais de l'autisme. De l'art n'est pas subjectif. On doit voir ou comprendre ce que l'artiste a voulu nous montrer et non ce faire l'idée que l'on veut en regardant du néant.
a very intelligent guy in a youtube video said: in earlier days artschools pushed rules upon the artists: the academic style and the rules of the salon. today artschools push vagueness and questioning as the most important things upon their artists. the video is artschools vs reality
I would recommend you to read the press text by Susanne Pfeffer released with the performance. It will not answer your questions, but it will lead you to your own interpretation. And might I add, I have seen the performance and a video really can't show the what it does to the audience.
Spoken like someone who has no idea how much research, thought, time, planning, etc. that goes into creating a piece like this. There isn’t anything “effortless” about it.

I am impressed and touched! Love, love, love it.
This was so stupid 🤣 but I'm glad you can appreciate it
someone tell me the name of the song?
FAUST album of the show on PAN's record
boomkat.com/products/faust-301a8778-6e66-4284-b066-194028e56631
The Artist released an album containing the songs of the Performance on spotify. Its called "Faust", maybe ull find the song there
this is beautiful and moving
Amazing
Please explain it to me
I watched it all, but didn't get what it means... I'd love to understand why I should be impressed, moved or anything, please explain it
Why should you be impressed or moved? The artist is trying to create a good "picture" not a novel.
I wonder how goethe would have commented on this.
song name pls

Es ist wohl schwer für die Leute zu begreifen die nicht dort waren oder sich in dem Kontext bewegen. Ich war sehr berührt...
Maybe in real life it's touching and amazing, but on youtube it looks like pretentious bullshit...
It's an eyesore!
Unbelievable...
she really did it to em

*BEST WATH?????*
I did see pretty much everything and the German Pavillon really stood out to me. Not only by their powerful performance, but the whole set up.
bizarre

my head explodes. what the hell is this supposed to be? it seems like total emptiness, total absence of meaning.

the video is artschools vs reality
Today art is almost equal to literature and philosophy
Sheng Zhu it IS equal in my opinion

art always has been in connection with those fields. only think about the pyramids.
This has become the effortless art which people like Abramovich helped pushing talentless artists.
Nailed it!
was gonna say the sane response ha
What's wrong about effortless art?

@@twomansdream6011 Spoken like someone who has been in this field for over two decades. I've seen plenty and this is just bad, just effortless.
Fake people problems.

i feel that venice has become the cheapest show on earth circus
There's more meaning in a three year old's doodle.
Dude, when something's empty of meaning, there is space to fill it
*marcel duchamp est définitivement mort!*
Wall to wall crap!
Amazing
