Body Art Ritual With Human Instruments
Fri. 10.45pm / Fr. 22:45 Uhr
The art of Louis Fleischauer is an invocation of primal energy. His art is raw, interactive and multidimensional. Mr. Fleischauer is a sculptor, and body-artist using organic materials such as animal hides, bones, flowers, blood, tears and his own skin. In his public rituals he turns humans into living sculptures and instruments, including his own body. He combines sound and movement to reach a state of exhaustion and trance. Many of his sculptures are wearable and become alive with the interaction of the person they dress.
After the Fall of the Wall he moved to a Berlin squad, started experimenting with leather, sounds and his body. A few years later he moved to Los Angeles where he started his Project AMF (Aesthetic Meat Foundation/Front), performing at events such as Burning Man, Bordeline Bienalle FR, Tempting Failure UK, Sad.
