Brigitta Muntendorf & Michael Höppner
Memorial of Rebellion

The interdisciplinary duo Brigitta Muntendorf and Michael Höppner present their new audiovisual installation “Memorial of Rebellion”. While the celebrated composer Brigitta Muntendorf creates music at the intersection of various art forms like a web of multi-layered references and connections, acclaimed director Michael Höppner dedicates his work to new formats of musical and theatrical performances.

As a space that echoes and reflects memories and commemorations, the installation creates a comparatively intimate situation, in which two visitors at a time take a journey into their personal memento via audio and video projections at a large distance from each other. The pandemic crossed the plan of a live performance and confronts us with different forms of absence. Thrown back on their own, the visitors of the ceremony experience these absences as performative patterns of the non-physical and untouchable, of the inaudible song in a big space of silence; a space, in which an individual commemoration of their very own neglected or failed rebellions could take place. The “Memorial of Rebellion” realizes a physically distanced encounter of the de-solidarized: The pandemic is not a state of emergency; it is the radicalization of the status quo.
