With the background of a Modern Dance education at the Alwin Nikolais & Murray Louis Dance Lab in New York she became student to the co-founder and master of Butoh Dance Kazuo Ohno and his son Yoshito Ohno in Japan. Since the beginning of the 90s she has commited herself to the development of an own dance- and body-lenguage that questions and reflects upon the existential condition and thriving forces of the human experience and consciousness.The memory of the body constitutes an essential core of her work, around which her creations evolve. Barth works as a soloist as well as in different constellations, her experimental projects with international artists from different art-fields have been realized through a variety of venues in New York, Japan and Europe. For her creative work in New York she has received the “Pro-Art-Foundation Prize”. Besides appearing at theaters, she exposes the body to unexpected urban and rural environments. Her improvisations are an approach to establish an awareness of connection and affinity between body, nature, landscape and architecture. In 2004 she founded the Berlin based DanceArt Laboratory. She teaches in and outside of Germany.

As my canvas is transparent the material allows for the connection between what I painted and the ambient space in between. The boundary between the space and the surface of painting is a point of union. Individual depth of view is something I try to convey with my works.

His environments, often realized with the participation of larger groups have been presented at various venues like galleries, museeums and artfestivals all over the world. His photo-series, especilally his ART-Mama have an ideosyncracy and density reminiscent of icons of contemporary art.

He accentuates his translucent layers by showing the process of layering. Through the layers of diaphanous papers the different themes and subjects are still visible – more or less. The provenience of his motifs is the public pool of images, pictures, icons etc. Stefan Rueff is engaged in the appropriation over a long period. The selection of motives is a process which is influenced by his subconsciousness. He is interested in their intellectual, spiritual and the emotional energy. The combination of diverse, heterogeneous motives neutralizes their primary sense and provokes a new context, a new relationship and the observer is asked to (re-)construct his own story.

TADAYUKI SHIMADA COMMENT 2009/ 9 My work might look the armor of the dog but I’ve never made the armor. I formed a board of aluminum by forging technique. I intentionally didn’t close the board, so you’ll find an empty space inside the board. The innumerable ripples made by forging provide us a strong sense of existence. The point of focus in my work was to have fused a sense of emptiness and a sense of existence together. The viewers are supposed to fill the empty space with their own imagination. My work is a device to cover the shadow of the life that exists there. In other works, I make sculptures in which a viewer can feel that invisible things are existence. 21 Mio Shirai 1-9-17-301 Kamiigusa, Suginami-ku,Tokyo, 167-0023, Japan Phone: +81 –(0)90-4833 7713 eMail: [email protected] Web: www.mioshirai.com 1962 Born in Kyoto, Japan 1986 Graduated from Tokyo National University of Fine Arts, BA 1988 Completed MFA at Tokyo National University of Fine Arts 1993-2007 Lived in New York since 2007 Lives in Tokyo SOLO EXHIBITIONS (Selected from 1998) 1998 Hillside Gallery, Tokyo 2003 “Mio Shirai: Joie de vivre”, Hillside Gallery, Tokyo 2005 “Mio Shirai: New Kingdom”, chashama, New York 2006 “Mio Shirai: Finding Shangri-La”, Art Front Gallery, Tokyo 2008 Northern Gallery for Contemporary Art, Sunderland, UK 2009 „Unknown Binding“, BankART NYK, Yokohama „Forever Afternoon“, BankART NYK, Yokohama Dark Canopy Bright Earth, 2007 GROUP EXHIBITIONS (Selected from 2000) 2000 “Echigo Tsumari Art Triennial 2000”, Nigata “3 + 1: Oki, Shirai, Matsuyama and Takezaki”, Ota Fine Arts, Tokyo 2001 “The Art of Collecting”, Flint Institute of Art, Michigan 2003 “Jack the Pelican Presents”, New York “Night of 1000 Drawings”, Artists’ Space, New York 2004 “Art / Room”, Hillside Gallery, Tokyo 2005 “chashama Exhibition: The Artist in residence of 40 Worth Street”, New York 2006 “Echigo-Tsumari Art Triennial 2006”, Niigata Le Salon Violet, New York 2007 „Restaurant 1929 Eating and Contemporary Art Part 3“, BankART 1929, Yokohama Forever Afternoon, 2008 “Explosion”, BankART Studio NYK, Yokohama „Works for Koji Enokura Documentary“, Gallery Space 23 Degrees Centigrade, Tokyo „Hillside Gallery: For New Start“, Hillside Forum, Tokyo 2008 „Artists File 2008: The NACT Annual Show of Contemporary Art“, The National Art Center, Tokyo 2009 „Belrin Tokyo Communication ART“, Higure 17-15, Tokyo „BankART Life 2“, Yokohama „The 1st Tokorozawa Biennial of Contemporary Art: Siding Railroad“, Saitama AWARDS AND FELLOWSHIPS 1993 Asian Cultural Council Fellowship Grant, New York 1996 Freeman Foundation Fellowship, Vermont 1998 Pola Art Foundation, Tokyo 2004 chashama Project Studio Program Residency, New York 2006 chashama Visual Arts Studio Award, New York Forever Afternoon, 2008 PERMANENT ARTWORKS 1994 Faret Tachikawa, Tokyo 1995 Yume Messe Miyagi, Sendai Uno City, Okayama 1996 Ebisu Garden Place, Tokyo 1997 Tokai Bank Guest House, Tokyo 1999 Kobe Wakinohama Art Project, Kobe Akita Prefectural Government Building, Akita 2000 Echigo Tsumari, Niigata 2004 JR Sapporo Tower, Sapporo The Creative Act, 2007 22 Ulrike Solbrig Chausseestr. 110/1, 10115 Berlin, Germany Tel: Mobile: eMail: Web: +49 30 6953 4249 +49 1577 43 5656 3 [email protected] www. un-wetter.net, solbrig.de, urbanacker.net Ulrike Solbrig (*1966 in Mainz ) is a visual artist and curator living in Berlin. In her work she maintains a critical perspective on the representation and organization of modern life and nature. With the video, Albertine at the Police Doctor‘s, she confronts her audience with art history, probing gender inequalities through the mirror of patriarchal omissions (sexwork. Kunst Mythos Realität, NGBK). With Getting Involved and Other Quirky Behavior, Solbrig together with the Danish artist Kirsten Dufour and the Norwegian curator Hilde Methi (as Kirkenes Mobile Kultur Byrå), delves into community engagement by looking into the working conditions of visiting Russian market women in Norway (pöpp68 privat, persönlich, öffentlich, politisch, NGBK). Since 2003, she is actively participating in the development of community gardens as part of her artistic work – resulting in establishing a community garden in Kreuzberg or the conference and exhibiton socialmentalenvironmental at Sparwasser HQ 2007. Solbrig is a co-founder of the interdisciplinary UNWETTER collective, which started its non-academic knowledge production at Dokumenta11. They connect with their continued practice of Discursive Picnics, institutional and non-institutional spaces like Liverpool Biennial, Berlin-Alexanderplatz, Museum of Contemporary Art Sydney, Palanga Beach, all over the world. Discursive Picnics are open invitations for anybody to become a guest or a host, to carry out and share and exchange their food, theory or practice, in public. Albertine at the Police Doctor‘s (240 min video). Literally focusing on the painting by Christian Krogh at the National Gallery in Oslo, over the period of an entire museum’s day, the production itself takes on a performative dimension, as the visitors rushing to Edvard Munch‘s paintings, irritated by the video shoot, have their gaze redirected to the focal point of the camera. Discursive Picnic_Thai Massage, 12 July 2009, 2 pm at Görlitzer Park While the original version of the well known Teltane poem, Herr von Ribbeck auf Ribbeck im Havelland, has it that Ribbeck‘s plan was, to have a pear placed in his grave – the version Ribbeck’s granddaughter, speaks of a lucky accident that leads to the eventual growing of a pear tree from his grave: Burying him, they forgot to empty his pockets of the pears, he used to share with the children of the village.
