Marcel is looking for inspiration to create a new painting. He always finds a solution in some box.

Unlike in other activities, traces are unexpected experiments, which are allowed and also desired in Marcel Freymond’s studio. The distinction between work and artist becomes blurred.

The eight-minute short film «Brother, move on» documents the taxi driving of the Indian woman Geeta, who offers the service „For Women By Women" in the city of Delhi. That way she enables other women to move freely. Antshi von Moos was represented with her film at numerous film festivals, for example in Berlin, Solothurn, Odense and Bristol.

Antshi von Moos works mainly with video. However, the collage offers her a medium in which she can live through the artistic process in a direct way. At the restaurant 50zu5 she exhibits, amongst other works, a series of collages, inspired by the poses of fashion magazine models. The landscape postcards, into which she inserts cut-out arms or legs, form a contrast to the images from fashion magazines.
