dal comunicato : From 19 April until 31 May 2008, AEROPLASTICS Contemporary presents the recent works of Samuel ROUSSEAU (1970), a French multi-media artist living and working in Grenoble, capital of the French Alps.
Through his new multimedia installation "La Constellation des Baisers" (Constellation of Kisses – 2008), the artist pursues his exploration of human pleasure, it's digital expression and the poetic feeling it may generate: thousands of projected kisses fly around, thanks to beamers and mirrors, and invite the viewer to be part of it. The "Festin des Délices" ( Feast of Delights – 2006) or some of his Video Wallpapers are the origin of this installation.
With the "Montagnes d'incertitudes" (Mountains of Uncertainty – 2007) and installation "Sans Titre" (l'Arbre et son Ombre) (Untitled- the Tree and its shadow – 2008), the artist takes us back to the immutable cycle of nature, that relives through virtual image. Rousseau makes digital art seem warm , fertile, reassuring, generous.
His installation "Jardins Nomades" (Nomadic Gardens – 2007) and his series of photographs "Douceurs marocaines" (Moroccan Pleasures – 2006) evoke migration or travel with a poetry and aesthetic that barely hides the sombre truth behind it: drugs and forced economic displacement.
Finally, the magnificent video "Maternaprima" depicting something moving inside planet earth, brings us back to the essential: the individual and the universe, the genesis and the end. A glance from the micro to the macrocosm, like in his "Casei" (2007); Photographs of planets ? Or perhaps cellular organisms ? Or simply of cheeses ?
The set of works shown in this exhibition indicates a search to master time and space so as to question, with humour and sympathy, the human perception of the often deleterious daily life. Even if Rousseau does not claim any "definite processes" and enjoys surprising himself, some key ideas support his non-stop creativity. As Ariane's clew, the necessity to survive and the recycling of scrap and abandoned material.

Stadtgalerie Kiel: BORDERLIVES
BORDERLIVES
Zeitgenössische Kunst aus Helsinki, St. Petersburg und Tallinn
Eröffnung am Freitag, den 13. Juni 2008, um 19 Uhr
14. Juni - 10. August 2008
Das Projekt "Borderlives. Zeitgenössische Kunst aus Helsinki, St. Petersburg und Tallinn" versteht sich als aktuelle Recherche zur künstlerischen, sozialen und mentalen Situation dieser nordöstlichsten Kunstregion Europas und konzentriert sich auf Künstlerinnen und Künstler, die eigenständig und präzise die epochalen Umbrüche der letzten Jahre widerspiegeln. Besonderes Gewicht wird dabei auf eine im umfassenden Sinne verstandene Grenzerfahrung gelegt. Ein weiterer Schwerpunkt widmet sich dem Umstand, dass viele Künstlerinnen und Künstler dieser Regionen dem eigenen Körper als dem ureigensten und am besten verfügbaren Material vertrauen und von daher physische und psychische Grenzerfahrungen im Zentrum der künstlerischen Auseinandersetzung stehen werden.
Es ist das Hauptanliegen der Ausstellung, durch die singuläre Kraft der künstlerischen Erfahrung Einblicke in die tatsächlichen Lebensumstände dieser Regionen jenseits mediengeprägter Versatzstücke zu gewinnen und die Dimensionen der sich vollziehenden Um- und Aufbrüche in Relation zu sehen zu den Erwartungshaltungen eines zentral-europäischen Publikums.
Beteiligte Künstlerinnen und Künstler:
Helsinki: Veli Granö, Jaakko Heikkilä, Tea Mäkipää, Anu Pennanen, Minna Rainio / Mark Roberts, Vesa Ranta
St. Petersburg: Ludmila Belova, Vladimir Bystrov, Philipp Dontsov, Dmitry Shubin, Dmitry Vilensky
Tallinn: Marco Laimre, Marko Mäetamm, Mark Raidpere, Ene-Liis Semper, Jaan Toomik
