Friederike Pezold

One Day

A woman, whose origin and destination are unknown, walks from morning until evening through the streets, going past the crazy things of life (from the modernization of the data processing of dogs to the rationalization of the length of spaghetti), and she needs a macabre sense of humor to stand everything she sees. The daily passage of one absurdity after the other.

Canale grande

A young woman is fed up with the usual consumer's television and begins to make her own television, or more correctly, closevision. She is now a reporter who wanders around Berlin with her camera and 'telecasting apparatus' on her back. Her livingroom has been transformed into a studio and here the different programs are assembled and aired: statements, interviews, realistic and phantastic programs.

The New Embodied Sign Language

A series of six, roughly ten minute body art videos - selected from an original twelve - produced by Friederike Pezold between 1973 and 1977, and originally shown as an installation in 1977. Each video features a part of Pezold's body up close in black-and-white, slowly moved and molded over the runtime.
