Analog Chat I–III Sound Piece
The artist’s record “Analog Chat I–III” by Marion Ritzmann is published as part of the series “Fortsetzung folgt” (to be continued), an open sequence of individual publications, which are connected and contextualized through the artist’s website as an integral part of the project. The 12" vinyl contains three new recordings made for this issue, which are based on a series of performances that were performed in Berlin, Basel and Biel in 2012. The equipment of the performance “Analog Chat” consists of a table, two chairs, two mechanical typewriters and a stack of A4 paper. The performance begins with Marion Ritzmann sitting down at one side of the table and waiting until someone from the audience sits down opposite her at the table and starts the dialogue. The rule of writing only one word per sheet of paper leads to the slowing down of communication in a real space. The written sheets of the analogue chats are later each bound into a book in the order in which they were created. Thus, three original books of the three Performances have been left, which now serve as the score for the present recordings. To continue the series of “Fortsetzung folgt”, the artist types the collected texts word by word on her laptop, using the internal microphone to record the resulting sounds of the keyboard. Three audio pieces have emerged, which oscillate between noise and rhythm and give an idea of the audience’s acoustic experience during the performances.
Moving Objects in Rose Madder
Published as part of “Fortsetzung folgt” / 8 double-sided illustration, saddle stitching The artist’s booklet “Moving Objects in Rose Madder” by Marion Ritzmann Ritzmann is published as part of the series “Fortsetzung folgt” (to be continued), an open sequence of individual publications, which are connected and contextualized through the artist’s website as an integral part of the project. On 16 pages, the booklet shows details of photographs from the installation of the same name. On display are white chalk lines on the grey-black primed floor, the traces and drawings left by the objects being moved by the exhibition visitors. If we are holding the artist’s booklet in our hands, however, this fact remains hidden to us for the moment; the drawings are available without comment, leaving us free to view and interpret them. If we follow the bit-link on the title page, we reach the corresponding entry on the artist’s website, where we find documentary visual material on the installation and a description of the work.
80 colour pencils
Published as part of “Fortsetzung folgt” / 80 full-page illustration in colour, pad binding The artist’s pad “80 colour pencils” by Marion Ritzmann is published as part of the series “Fortsetzung folgt” (to be continued), an open sequence of individual publications, which are connected and contextualized through the artist’s website as an integral part of the project. The starting point for “80 colour pencils” is a box of eighty crayons in different colours and the concept of painting an A4 sheet of paper completely with each of them, resulting in eighty monochrome drawings. For the publication, these were facsimiled and glued into a pad as a colour fan. A bit-link on the cover page takes us to the corresponding entry on the artist's website, where we find further documentary visual material and a description of the work.
