Visualcontainer is glad to presents monography of Philipp Geist, multimedia and live video performer, on

This exhibition is a overview about Geist works: live performance, multimedia installation, festival, etc..

PHILIPP GEIST
A self-taught artist based in Berlin since 1999, Philipp Geist (VIDEOGEIST) works internationally through the
media of video, performance, photography, and painting. In 2008, he projected his video installation Time
Fades across the Piazzetta open space of the Kulturforum in Berlin. In 2007, he screened his video
installation Time Lines on the facade of the museum for contemporary art Palazzo delle Esposizioni in the
center of Rome. His projects are characterized by a complex integration of space, sound, and moving
images. Time plays an important conceptual role in his work, in which this apparently fixed and constant
variable is repeatedly subjected to variations.
Music and sound are central elements of Philipp Geist’s work. He enters into a dialogue with music in many
of his creations, and this influences the speed, the intensity of the effects, the degree of abstraction, the
colorfulness, and also the content of his images. In the course of this process, visual configurations can
emerge that do not necessarily accompany the music, but instead challenge it.
The moving image is not given a subordinate role to the music, rather, the two media enjoy equal status. In
this way, Geist seeks to overcome the dependency of image on music frequently found in the genre of concert and club visuals.

NamaTRE.ba 3
Bosnia&Herzegovina Videoart
Curator IGOR BOSNJACK

Republic of Srpska
Bosnian video art (video Scene:Republic of Srpska) is represented by three varieties: on first place there are
works that refers on recent war and post traumatic elements in society (Dajan Spiric, Igor Bosnjak), but on
the second side there are works that refers on some universal problems and ideas of media and art (Mladen
Bundalo, Nenad Malesevic, Dragana Andjelic), and on the tihrd side there are works that refers to questions
of personal identity and social identity (Borjana Mrdja, Bojana Tamindzija). This selection (compilation) of
video art is a part of namaTRE.ba 3 video project that is some kind of “other” independent scene inside
Bosnia & Herzegovinia that represent institutional art. Those works that are traying to open problems and
question of memory have influenced by war, and post war atmosphere instead of those works that refers on
collective identities and ontological problems which have influenced by artistic and personal trauma.

Claudio Sinatti
Interview + Mono
4th June - 4th July 2009

Only on VisualcontainerTV
http://www.visualcontainer.tv

About the interview
Within its monographic section Special One, VisualContainerTv is proud to present the first of a long series of interviews to the chief protagonists of the world of video from the past to the current days. The opening
shot deals with one of the most important director in the Italian multimedia environment: Claudio Sinatti. Interviewed by Giorgio Fedeli, the president and critic of VisualContainer, Claudio is discussing some words relevant to his job and works from the origin to the latest production, which are in great demand within the international world of multimedia art, audiovisual communication and music video-clip. With the support of excerpts from his videos and shots of his technical creations, Claudio’s answers open up to his poetics: to his unfailing will to experiment and compare not only with the adult professional rules but also with the children’s powerful vision endowing the world with fantasy and amazement. The emotional dimension finally is the main character in the passionate speech by this multimedia protagonist, who keeps investigating technological equipment with the aim to find and offer an endless show of pure emotions and moods.
In concert with the interview, VisualContainerTv is more than happy to welcome for the very first time a representative selection from the different works by Claudio Sinatti.

Extract about a video -performance
of 30h for the Rhino Jazz Festival
October 2008 (France)

Selected videos:
4T - Pascal (video) + Sebastien (sound)
Hot Jazz - Julie (video & sound)
Candy Dream - Julie (video) + Cyril (sound)
VHSound A - Pascal (video)
VHSound B - Pascal (video)
Kass tete d'affiches - Benoit (video) + Emmanuel (sound)

Ad. Lib.2 - Le Matrice
This video doesn’t actually have a narrative array, as it mostly deals with an abstract pattern of moments,
glances and sensations.
Visual situations have been seized/stolen and definitely transformed thanks to video mixering and
participation from several musicians.
Such videowork is not subject to any chronological issue and is intended for a videoinstallation with ten
monitors and ten sound videos being played in random loop.
In virtue of its specifications and intentions, this videowork can be better compared with design artworks
than with any film or documentary production.
It is important to remark that it is not a finished « object », rather it proposes itself as a vision which is
going to progress in time according to casual encounters and occasions.
