Summary
For his film project "12 Asterisci" (after the twelve stars on the European flag), the german artist Telemach Wiesinger visited numerous places on the internal and external borders of the European Community and transformed them into seemingly remote black and white locations with the help of his 16mm film camera. Removed from the current political debates of the day, the sometimes archaic-looking artefacts reveal the anachronistic character of these ultimately arbitrary demarcations and borders. The montage places the scenes in a continuous "flow". This open, experimental form has the effect of visually loosening the boundaries and thus aesthetically overcoming their rigid regulations.
