The Art Association Giannozzo
organized a series of festivals in the 90's under the title GIANNOZZO Live
Festivals. 1996 and 1998 were organized the festivals Baitz with Sound in cooperation with the Art Association Kunstpflug, Baitz, Brandenburg, Germany. |
GIANNOZZO Live Festival 1 |
Roman Signer, Tower, Live Festival 1, September 1990 |
The program of the festival orients itself at the term of presence. It is common to all invited artists that they try to operate with the presence of their person in relation to a public in a certain situation and give this presence during the duration of the performance a form. The artistic activity does not hide itself behind art articles or compositions or behind images, which are produced of media or other apparatuses. Production and presentation of pictures can collapse in a Live Art. Rolf Langebartels |

GIANNOZZO Live Festival 3 |
Brian Catling, Luna Prayer, Live Festival 3, August 1992 |
Perhaps the Braun tube already has triumphed in relation to the event. The focused electron beam strews between seat sets of the living rooms. TV studios update comments before live transmissions on large monitors. In the infinite repeatability of the electronic media the witness of the event with his uniqueness falls quasi simultaneously into the cooled world of the DATs and RAMs. Do only remain the wavesurfing on TV frequencies and the adventure tour in the cyberspace of the keyboard cowboys with highest baud rates? Have the event and its witness still another chance? Opposite to the thick machines of the culture business with its rapid entertainment the Art Association Giannozzo tries with its third Live Festival to make a contribution to approach these questions.

GIANNOZZO Live Festival 4 |
Joa Iselin and Christoph Ranzenhofer, performance, Live Festival 4, August 1993 |
If one goes to the art, the everyday life remains at home. The art is another space than that, which surrounds us daily. Does the time stand still, does it race past us? The space of the art is an engine. Our attention compresses itself to presence and can become the drive for new experiences in such a way. Concentrated and detached by us, it steers on something new, which we cannot define yet. Gestures and characters fluctuate in here and now, only later than designations are interpreted, in interpretations described. Concise is, what occurs and remains. "We fly, we fly. Under us a new world. Our thoughts and dreams explore a landing strip. The old world never sees us again." Susanne Lembke, Günther Rösch |

Festival Baitz with Sound 1 |
Udo Idelberger, Wind Harp, Festival Baitz with Sound 1, August 1996 |
The village Baitz in Brandenburg, district Potsdam Mittelmark, becomes on one weekend in August the center for experimental artistic works with sound. Baitz is situated in a sandy and hilly area with pine woods. Next door are the Belziger Meadows with their protected area for Grosstrappen, a rare bird family. Horizon is to be seen, the pair of storks rattles in its nest over the village roads, the course from the village to the fields and the forests is not far. Larks warble above the stubble-fields. The character of this art project is made up from both the integration of local aspects into the works of the artists and from the contrast of these works to their rural environment.
