My over-groomed sense of entitlement

A woman, the sole character in the scene and obviously in some
dependent employment stops to act according to the role expected of
her as employe. With unblinking eyes she seems to follow a different
agenda, or maybe a ³vision². She seems to act strange or
unreasonable, however it could be the opposite, that all of her
surroundings appear to be unreasonable to her. ³I would prefer not
to...² is her response when asked directly (Bartleby) This brief
outline of ³Bartleby² a video adaptation of the novel of Herman
Melville basically matches several of Gabriele Stellbaum's more recent
works. Another response of the female main character is: ³What you
call a violation has been an act of disgust² (Summer Frost). The
films are set in very different locations or studio sets. The camera
follows her almost all the time, it is very rarely allowed to detach
from her, and thus transmits a claustrophobic feeling, already. The
picture is clear, pristine and of that unforgiving sharpness of high
definition video realism, and still there is a sense of surrealism
similar to some of Lars von Trier's Dogma films (and ³Dogville²).
According to the artist it is all based on images, she starts a
project with a mental image she has, and searches or builds the sets
she is looking for: an office space that totally matches the color of
her printed cotton dress (Bartleby); a public indoor pool and all the
adjacent facility spaces connected with it (Friday, the 13th); a
seemingly endless parking garage that functions as a spiral-shaped
maze (Honest Lies); or a flat, snow covered winter landscape used as
intermitted images.

Gabriele Stellbaum will be present for Q&A. Curated by Klaus W.
Eisenlohr
