KINDERVIEW 2005
A project with 15 children in Berlin, Soldiner Kiez – a neighbourhood with strong immigration percentage. During the summer the children made 10 interviews with adults from different professional and social backgrounds. The interviews were directed by the children, trying to reverse the usual power structure between adults and children. This work resulted in: 1). A neighbourhood newspaper, printed and distributed for free to 8.000 homes in Soldiner Kiez and 2). A video film documenting the interviews. GERHARD RICHTER 2005
Exhibition with Ondrej Brody within the Groupshow FLICKER!, curated by Jan Christensen at ‘Projekt 0047’ in Berlin. The Groupshow FLICKER! consisted in 15 successive solo shows. We decided to curate a solo show for Gerhard Richter. The exhibition had 3 parts: 1). A sound piece with recorded telephone calls in broken german, trying to invite Gerhard Richter for a show, 2). A video interview with Edith Richter – widow of late Gerhard Richter (died 07.02.2005) and 3). A performance with 3 five-year-old children putting up the title of the exhibition as a a wall-drawing on the gallery wall. LICKING CURATORS ASS 2005

It was truly Punishing to view. (…) Perhaps you would like to make fun of the Communist/Socialist Dictator freaks who are our enemies instead. You could start with Saddam Hussein where Stalin was his role model along with Che Gueverra, Mao and others: • Complete documentation: https://paetau.com/downloads/KiezAvantgarde/ThePunishmentReaction.html</tbrewitz@cornermark.com> PAST/PRESENT/FOREVER 2005 Past/Present/Forever – 05.03-02.04 2005 – Curated by Jan Christensen – Participating artists: Miriam Böhm, Michel de Broin, Andreas Dobler, Anders Eiebakke, Mai Hofstad Gunnes, Adad Hannah, Bjørn-Kowalski Hansen, Jooyoung Lee, Gabriel Lester, Elizabeth Linden, Josefine Lyche, Lars Morell, Kristofer Paetau, Carissa Rodriguez, Kalle Runeson, Johan Thurfjell, Eve K.
