At the centre of Kerstin Cmelka’s eclectic, multimediatic re-stagings of historical material taken from film, art, and theatre shown in the exhibition Art and Life Form, an interest in filigree subversion and an exploration of fractures can be discerned. The involvement of fellow artists in these re-stagings leads to (re-)doubling in the construction of a usually fragile complicity with the viewers. The newly negotiated assertions, apparent here, between the poles of art and life are shown mingling, and a reflexive meta-commentary on exceedingly free interpretation is always also staged as well.
