Bj\u00f6rn Perborg\u2019s creative work encompasses animations, videos, sculptures and installations. One typical aspect of many of his works and their characteristic humour is the artist\u2019s personal perspective on specific facts, often making it seem as if
\nan anthropologist from outer space were studying the habits and customs of societies on earth. As a result, the absurdity of specific situations or behaviour is made more obvious.<\/p>\n
With “Geschichten aus dem Koffer\u201c (Stories from a Suitcase), Bj\u00f6rn Perborg is presenting a new series of works that combines five oversized suitcase-sculptures with a two-channel video installation. The inside of each suitcase functions as a kind of exhibition space en miniature, where five different stories are told on the basis of animations, an installation, a slide show and a photo exhibition in mini format: these are Bj\u00f6rn Perborg\u2019s personal experiences, but things that could happen in the same or a similar way everywhere; an artist\u2019s reflections on travel, on the scenarios for events and places in his life, on roots and nostalgia.<\/p>\n
Finally, Bj\u00f6rn Perborg\u2019s two-channel video installation surprises visitors with a grandiose, \u2018sparkling\u2019 \u2013 in the truest sense of the word \u2013 new interpretation of the drum-groove from Led Zeppelin\u2019s \u201cImmigrant Song\u201d and a precisely synchronised firework display.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","categories":[],"class_list":["post-3910","kb_exhibition","type-kb_exhibition","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":{"article_image":4048,"article_image_bu_de":"","article_image_bu_en":"","datum_suche":"2013-07-09 13:52:45"},"yoast_head":"\n
