Manuel Graf, Buchtipp 2, 14 May 2010, defilee, 7 p.m., NUMBER THREE: HERE AND NOW, JULIA STOSCHEK COLLECTION, Duesseldorf

Manual Graf currently lives and works in Instanbul and Paris and has been working mostly with film since 2003. His animated films reflect models from architecture and design. His digital and hand-made animations are visual lectures that combine associative visual references with text and music samples. In addition to his digital work with sound and film, Manuel Graf’ s interest in the sensuality inherent to craft work has led him to start making his own ceramics and women’s shoes since 2007. These objects have become an important part of his work and he has incorporated them into his films and their presentation. Rudolf Steiner' s "Die Kernpunkte der sozialen Frage in den Lebensnotwendigkeiten der Gegenwart und Zukunft" and Richard Sennett' s "The Craftsman" deal with the reconciliation between man and work and form the basis for Graf' s works. For NUMBER THREE: HERE AND NOW the protagonists of “Buchtipp 2“ drink off the ceramics and wear the women' s shoes. A couple that shows up on a monitor, read out the book "Die Kernpunkte der sozialen Frage in den Lebensnotwendigkeiten der Gegenwart und Zukunft".
