Sound artist Franziska Lantz will present an audio response to the exhibition exhibition Michael Dean: Government in the galleries.
Single, precise words are always the starting point for Michael Dean. Writing is an essential part of his work: his sculptures are accompanied by intimate, observational texts exploring the object qualities of words. Like government papers, these pages are subjective policies, documents written with a specific thought in mind that, once distributed, becomes subject to interpretation by others. Government, Dean's first museum solo exhibition presented in Galleries 1, 2 and 3, quotes from and transforms the Institute's galleries.
During the exhibition Dean has invited four artists to make use of the exhibition space in events that use sculptures as projection screens and sound stages. Other artists appearing in this events series include Ed Atkins and Becky Beasley.
In Franziska Lantz's work acoustic properties of the exhibition space are tested and investigated for a percussive and vocal examination of the physical exhibition. Collected as raw sound recordings, the accumulated sample material is edited and arranged into a series of rhythms, beats and melodic patterns with selected texts by Michael Dean for lyrics. Songs returned to the space in form of an intimate concert.
Franziska Lantz (CH, 1975) lives and works in London. She has been producing DriftShift, a radio show of 'found sound and found text' broadcast weekly on Resonance104.4fm since 2008. Recent group shows and performances include Let the Rhythm Hit'em, Kunstraum Kreuzberg/Bethanien, Berlin 2011/12, curated by Matthias Mayer; Live performance aka SAYDANCE as part of Seven Sites, Salford 2011, curated by Laura Mansfield and Swen Steinhauser; fires are raging, performance as part of Liste Basel 2011 with Supportico Lopez Berlin.
