Utilizing both archival material and footage filmed by the artist herself, Gerbaulet\u2019s documentaries bridge the gap between analysis and poetry. Buildings, space, and the body serve as sites that bear witness to past crime and trauma. Questioning voiceovers dissolve the idyllic facades of these structures, as her films examine the consequences of passively forgetting. Through political and biographical frameworks, Gerbaulet quietly confronts the lingering vestiges of a problematic history.\u00a0The program features Gerbaulet\u2019s recent films\u00a0<em>Schicht\u00a0<\/em>(2015) and\u00a0<em>Depth of Field\u00a0<\/em>(2017), followed by\u00a0<em>Tattooed Prisoners<\/em>\u00a0(2007) and\u00a0<em>Datterode\u00a0<\/em>(2005).<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><em>Presented in collaboration with the Goethe-Institut Chicago.<\/em><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><em>2005-17, Germany, multiple formats, ca 65 min + discussion<\/em><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><em>Alex Gerbaulet in person<\/em><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.alexgerbaulet.de\/\"><strong>Alex Gerbaulet<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0(b.
