Hello everybody,

I would like to invite to see my insallation "Timing" the Glow Festival

in Eindhoven 6th - 15th November 2009.

I am also preparing a facade installation on the Royal Throne in

Bangkok, Thailand. The projection is a central part of the festivities

celebrating king Bhumibol's birthday and will be attended by thousands

of Thai citizens who honour their king. The art work combining images

of the royal past and present, of the culture and nature of Thailand

and abstract passages can be seen on each night between the 5th and

the 13th December.

Kind regards,

Philipp Geist

Glow Festival Eindhoven 2009 Outdoor Installation "Timing"

06th -15th November 2009

Philipp Geist (Germany)

Philipp Geist’s still- and video projection mingle with the facades and

their means of representation. Through projecting light and images into

architectural environments filled with fog, his interventions in architectural

environments visualize and – at the same time - cloak the space they inhabit.

Intersecting media and urban landscapes into new hybrid conditions, their

experiential attraction reflect on the ephemeral and dynamic qualities of artificial

consistencies. Project: Timing “Timing” is a site-and time-specific

work, made for GLOW and made of projected words woven into the space

like a poetic carpet and at the same time, as social radar. The work

will be completed by the visitors walking in the projection field.

Location: Kennedyplein/ Bus station Neckerspoel Interview Philipp Geist

by Lizzy Sliepenbeek “Time is a highly personal and subjective

experience” Time passing “I project directly on architectural elements,

on the ground and on fog. The result is an interplay between the solid

walls and ground and the transparent, dissolving fog. The words are

reflected and made visible in the air. Fog is, similar to time, always

in flux, you cannot hold or keep it. This transient material refers to

the location of the bus station, a place which evokes different

associations of time passing. Lack of time and bothersome waiting

belong together and remind the visitor of the fact that time is not a

fixed and objective parameter, but always a highly personal and

subjective experience. A station serves as a metaphor for arrival and

departure: of loss and gain, and time spent at places and with people

of importance to oneself”. www.p-geist.de www.videogeist.de

Liquid Memory / Riverine Zones Video-installations of Philipp Geist (Berlin), monastery gardens of family Hütte

550 km Oberwesel

Liquid Memory / Riverine Zones
Video-installations of Philipp Geist (Berlin), monastery gardens of family Hütte,
Monastery gardens and sacristy, Oberstr. 11
Fr 20-24h / Saturday 20-24h / Su 20-23h

The artist Philipp Geist (Berlin) shows his video installation „ Liquid Memory“ in the church ruins and in the sacristy of the former Minorite cloister in Oberwesel. In his installation Philipp Geist picks out the element water as a central theme and puts this in the immediate connection to the historical place and the Rhine Valley. Water and time are the constants in the oeuvre of Philipp Geist. He works with the media videoinstallation, audio/visual performance, painting and photography. His projects integrate space, sound and moving image.

With this installation, the artist renounces the use of canvases and projects directly onto parts of the former cloister facade, the ruins and onto fog as a transpartent and volatile projection-ground. An interaction between the concrete and tangible wall and the clear evaporating projection will bring together time and space.

Geist will exhibit his long term water-project ´Riverine Zones´ in the former sacristy. This video-space installation takes the viewer on an exploratory expedition through international rivers. The artist makes a world visible which is so near and yet so distant to us. With an underwater camera he roams through all zones of the river: the ground, the deep or shallow water and the surface. Thus originate Geist´s partly minimum-puristic, partly colour-intensive, dream-like and shadowy-breakable image compositions. Geist covers– from the water perspective– also the bank area, from which, using another English term -„riverine“- the project receives its name.

Profile:

Bangkok facade I am developing a temporary video installation.

LIQUID MEMORY - PHILIPP GEIST Outdoor - Video - Installation in
Oberwesel / Kulturstiftung Hütte

Luminale - Rheinpartie "auf zu neuen ufern" 02 - 04. Oktober 2009 Der
Berliner Künstler Philipp Geist (1976) zeigt seine Videoinstallation
'LIQUID MEMORY' an der Klosterruine und in der Sakristei in Oberwesel
(Oberes Mittelrheintal) im Zeitraum vom 01. - 04. Oktober 2009. In
seiner Installation thematisiert Philipp Geist das Element Wasser und
setzt dieses in den unmittelbaren Zusammenhang zu dem geschichtlichen
Ort und dem Rheintal.

Wasser und Zeit sind die Konstanten im Werk von Philipp Geist. Der
Künstler, Autodidakt arbeitet international in den Medien
Videoinstallation, Audio/Visuelle Performance, Malerei und Fotografie.
Seine Projekte sind in erster Linie gekennzeichnet durch ihre
Integration von Raum, Ton und Bewegbild.

Bei der Installation verzichtet der Künstler auf den Einsatz von
Leinwänden und projiziert direkt auf Teile der ehemaligen
Klosterfassade, die Ruine und auf den transparenten, flüchtigen
Projektionsgrund Nebel. Es entsteht ein Zusammenspiel zwischen der
konkreten, greifbaren Wand und der transparenten, sich verflüchtigenden
Projektionsfläche des Nebels. Der sich temporäre Projektionsgrund Nebel
steht dabei für das ungreifbare Moment der Zeit und damit auch der
Geschichte, und Erinnerung. So entwickelt Geist einen Dialog mit dem
Ort und seiner künstlerischen Arbeit.

In der Sakristei wird Geist sein langfristiges Wasser - Projekt
Riverine Zones ausstellen. Die Video-Raum-Installation ''Riverine
Zones'' nimmt den Betrachter mit auf eine Entdeckungsreise durch
internationale Flüsse. Der Künstler macht eine Welt sichtbar, die uns
so nah und gleichzeitig doch so fern ist. Mit einer Unterwasser-Kamera
streift er durch alle Zonen des Flusses: den Grund, das tiefe oder
seichte Wasser und die Oberfläche. So entstehen Geists teils
minimal-puristische, teils farbintensiven, traumartigen und
schemenhaft-zerbrechlichen Bildkompositionen. Geist bezieht auch, aus
der Wasserperspektive, das Ufergebiet mit ein, dessen englische
Bezeichnung ?riverine" sogar Namensgeber des Projekts wurde.
