video-magazine 'animal'

Andreas Templin 'the 20th Century on visit in the 21st', 2002

'This is not a tribute to animals. No sensitive natural observations, or cute portraits of animal 'companions'.These are videos about animals. People dressed as animals and animals dressed as animals.'

CASZUIDAS URBAN SCREEN FESTIVAL AWARD

The 1st CASZUIDAS Urban Screen Festival Award of Virtueel Museum Zuidas has been granted to the German artist Andreas Templin for "as if to nothing" and to the British artist duo John Wood & Paul Harrison for "Shelf". The jury, headed up by SKOR director Fulya Erdemci, intentionally named not one, but two artworks as winners in order to emphasize the scope and possibilities for presenting artworks on an urban screen.

oneminute book reviews at Amsterdam World Book Capital

Being asked by the oneminutes-foundation Amsterdam to review a few books within one minute, Templin decided to review Giorgio Agamben's "Homo Sacer" in a huge Chicago parking-garage and "Derek Jarman's garden" in the Millennium Park Chicago.
These recensions are being exhibited 24th till 27th of April in Amsterdam's prestigious OBA-library in the framework of Amsterdam World Book Capital and the international literature festival.
Many thanks to Doug vanderHoof who made these videos possible.

Evolution de l'Art- work by Andreas Templin available

opening 09.12. Evolution de l'Art (EdlA). New branch at Het Blauwe Huis [The Blue House] Amsterdam. Work available by Andreas Templin.



The gallery Evolution de l'Art (EdlA) arises from a collaboration
between SPACE projects/residency lab/store, Bratislava, and Cesare
Pietroiusti. Evolution de l'Art is a commercial gallery for
contemporary art which only sells artworks that are immaterial, with
no physical residue, and it does not release certificates of
authenticity, nor statements or receipts. EdlA will represent, on a
non-exclusive basis, artists whose artwork is, at least in the case of
some specific projects, alien from any physical-material component.
Beyond this condition, there will not be any other limitation or
requisite for represented artists in terms of medium or technique.
The curator of this exhibition is Yasser Ballemans. Details on the exhibition, the opening and the offered artwork can be found at evolutiondelart.org

This work of Eric von Robertson is wearing a sweater designed by him for a public space work developed in Tiblisi, where a few of these specially designed sweaters, assigned with certain meanings and functionalities, have been worn by stray dogs.
It is carrying a MP3-player featuring an Amsterdam-street-version of "Andreas Templin plays Bach", which will be launched as a vinyl-record-edition with spatial display in 2008.
