Céline Berger

©Roland Baege

Often involving external participants, managers, coaches, employees, Céline Berger creates objects, videos and installations exploring our professional lives. Her focus lies on day to day routines, small gestures or behavior patterns, in all their mundane aspects. Short narratives as texts, written and spoken words are in the center of her works. She says her work is 'a search for new ways to question our professional working lives, beyond simplifications, irony, moralizing undertone or fatalism.'

Céline Berger (*1973) lives and works in Cologne, Germany and Rotterdam, The Netherlands. Trained in physics and material sciences, she worked for various international microelectronic companies as a production and project engineer from 1997 to 2008. She graduated from the Academy of Media Arts in Cologne in 2012 and has been a resident at the Rijksakademie van beeldende kunsten, Amsterdam, in 2012-13. She received the Nam June Paik Newcomer Award in 2012.

Unna

Begleitet wird die Grand Snail Tour von Künstler*innen aus dem Bereich Literatur, Fotografie und Zeichnung, die zeitgleich zum Aufenthalt des Tourmobils, Eindrücke und Reflexionen aus jeweils derselben Stadt sammeln und diese sie visuell oder literarisch ins Bild setzen. So entsteht ein Paratext zur 3-jährigen Tour, der in Form einer Reisechronik, ein Kaleidoskop an Geschichten, Verbindungen, Momentaufnahmen in den 53 Städten der Region als Gleichzeitigkeiten und Ungleichzeitigkeiten zur Grand Snail Tour sichtbar werden lässt.
