INTERVIEW: Carsten Nicolai als Alva Noto: "Xerrox"

"ICH BIN NICHT DER JIMI HENDRIX AUF DEM LAPTOP"

Der deutsche Sound-, Installations- und Videokünstler Carsten Nicolai war 1997 an der Documenta 10 beteiligt und auf der Biennale in Venedig (2001 und 2003) zu sehen. Unter dem Künstlernamen Alva Noto stellte er in der Hamburger Kunsthalle sein neustes Projekt "Xerrox Vol. 2" vor. Im art-Interview spricht er über seine Zeit als Gärtner, die Grenzen zwischen Kunst und Naturwissenschaft – und die Vermatschung von Tönen.

VIDEOS: Gerhard Richter

link: Videos über Gerhard Richter >>>

Gerhard Richter is an important artist in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries; his work spans nearly five decades. Here, you can view his work and learn about his life.

Gerhard Richter was born in Dresden in 1932 to a middle class family. Like many Germans of his generation, his relatives were involved in the Nazi movement; his mother's brother, Uncle Rudi died a young Nazi officer, while Richter's mentally disabled aunt was imprisoned in a Hitler euthanasia camp. Rigorous ideology and death have haunted Richter since he was just a child, perhaps causing his strong dislike for ideology of any kind and underpinning the attraction that nature, as an indiscriminate force, holds for him.

Support from his mother encouraged him to become an artist during his mid-teens and he embarked on a classical education at the Dresden Art Academy in Communist East Germany. Years later and a few months prior to the erection of the Berlin Wall, he and his wife fled with only a suitcase to Düsseldorf in West Germany. From 1961 to 1964, Richter studied at the Staatliche Kunstakademie Düsseldorf under Karl Otto Gotz.
