Gospels

After long and painful research, a picture started to emerge. Going through vast amounts of archive material the artist stumbled upon more and more interview clips where there seemed to be a lack of clarity as to whom the person on camera was actually referring to. Yet they all spoke of Him. Sometimes the reports on Him seemed to reinforce each other and sometimes they seemed to contradict each other. Nevertheless, there was something in the tone of their voices and in the way they moved their heads that made the artist sense some sort of coherence in their experience. Sometimes he felt as though he had caught a glimpse of a silhouette reflected in their eyes. "Gospels" is a work with an open-ended duration. As new material is found, new chapters will be added, slowly completing and complicating the picture. A canon in the making. The project was initiated during a two-month residency at Werkleitz Gesellschaft in Halle, Germany, in the spring of 2006.
Erik Bünger is a Swedish artist, composer, musician, and writer living in Berlin. He works on recontextualizing and remixing media - appropriated from existing music and film - in performances, installations, and web projects. He has a MFA in Electroacoustic Composition from The Royal University College of Music in Stockholm and Universität der Künste in Berlin. He has performed and exhibited all over Europe, and South and North America. In 2003 he created "Let them sing it for you", an interactive web art project, which so far has had over four million users from all over the world and has received two international awards.

50.000.000 can't be wrong
Experimental video | dv | black and white | 6:24 | Germany | 2006
"50,000,000 can't be wrong" shows crowds of people expressing longing and despair through their mimics and gestures. Their subject of attraction, their idol, is missing. He is off-frame, hidden to the viewer. All traces referring to him are erased from the footage. What remains is his reflection in their faces, constituting his negative image.

Hohe Kiefer 4 (2005) 5:37 min. C'est le petit matin. Un loup se met en route; il quitte résolument la forêt recouverte de neige, traverse en courant des prairies pour arriver à un lotissement de banlieue. On ne connaît pas la raison de son voyage. Il entre dans une maison, c'est la chambre. Un couple y est allongé et dort, il y a un jouet sur le sol, mais on ne voit aucun enfant. Le loup reste dans la pièce, flaire le jouet et reste un moment couché dans une attitude de garde avant de partir par la porte. La femme se réveille. Hohe Kiefer 4 est l'histoire d'une rencontre qui se déroule à plusieurs niveaux de présence.
