* 1960 in Sindelfingen/Baden-Württemberg,
lives and works as a freelanced dancer / choreographer in Berlin
Anna Barth moves as a borderliner between the influence of western and eastern contemporary dance art. 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.

satiralC22Claritas, performance including poems and pictures2
Willing to realize collaboration of Kadoh and opera3 in 2010.
*1: Kadoh is still ruled in hereditary system and apprentices are like corporate member. Yukio
Nakagawa stepped out of this constrained world and worked on his own. In his age, there were
so much to overcome, such as hindrance of the Kadoh world.
*2: Will be published.
*3* Song, music, Butoh, dance, etc, I am interested in presenting arts which comes from the
human body in a live way.

STATEMENT
I see a space as a frame. 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.

Art & Breakfast 2008
HIGURE 17-15 cas / TokyoJapan
Art & Breakfast is an art-project that the artist Midori Mitamura produces
the work as staying in the art space. Art & Breakfast starts from eating
breakfast together with visitors. Ordinary objects in the space are transformed into new art works, based on images or memories stacked in her
journeys, and numbers of small installations fill up the space. [What is Art
& Breakfast?] The art-project with the breakfast that makes art works as
staying. The origin of the word comes from B&B (Bed & Breakfast)

His performances are known world-wide; as „bread-man“, „boxing performance“ or with „punishment“, the japanese multimedia avangardist
TATSUMI ORIMOTO provokes emotion and alertness among his audiences.
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. An
integral part of Tatsumi Orimotos involvement as an artist is to support and
connect young japanese artists as well as artists from other parts of the
world. Friendship, communication and long term collaborations with his

Explosion 2007, Collage, 66 x 30 cm
About the paperworks of Stefan Rueff
Similar to Walter Benjamin, who described the diorama as “a aquarium
of distance and past“, Stefan Rueff upgrades the quality of the collage in
his paperworks by working with different layers. 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.

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. (Written on the window of Sparwasser HQ)
Getting Involved and Other Quirky Behavior, 1st of May Breakfast with the
Russian Market women at the Russian Seamen’s Club, Kirkenes with a 28
min. video-copilation of interviews about the working conditions at the

Born 1979in Ourense-Spain. Lives and works in Berlin.
The artist work of Juan Varela ist characterized by using a diverse variety
of media. He has worked with sculptur, video, and also interactive
installations. Builded in a way of sensorial manifestations,hisworks
establishthe spatial-relation with the spectator as a decisive matter.The
human been, - his fears, desires, frustrations, thoughts,..- are contained
as esential fluid and subject of the work`s body.
STATEMENT
to the works of the exhibition - BERLIN + TOKYO, COMMUNICATION
ART, Galerie HIGURE 17-15 cas, Tokyo 2009
The works presented to the exhibition, “Anthropo” and “Tepid Water”,
are included in the last two series of works made by the artist.
The first oneappears in the serie: “Saliva” - a group of works which
subject turns aroundthe process of desire and how lately this desire ist
applied over different objects - desire of food, desire ofpower, sexual
desire, etc. They deal with process relationated directly with our carnal
part,organs and body rithms, and how are welimited and constrained by
all of them.
The second work, “Tepid Water”, involves a videoinstallation belonging
to the “Permanence” serie. This collection of works constitutes
objects,video and photography inspired in concepts such as Entropy
(a process of degradation or running down or a trend to disorder),
Permanence (the quality or state of being for a indefinite time) and other
circumstances that involves the natural develop of life.
