GHL
[…] In GHL fügt Lotte Schreiber dem präzisen Blick aufs Konkrete ihrer bisherigen Architekturstudien eine deplatzierte Erscheinung aus der unwirklich abstrakten Gegenwart hinzu: Vielleicht ein ferner Wiedergänger von Alain Delons Börsenmakler in Michelangelo Antonionis L´eclisse (1962), dessen einsilbige Entfremdung vom hochtrabenden Kauderwelsch der angeblichen Erklärungen für die krisengebeutelte Gegenwart ersetzt worden ist. […] (Christoph Huber)
A deserted lido on the Danube in the off season, a man in a business suit who wanders around it, an apparent telephone conversation. Fragments of quotes can be heard, a series of empty phrases that turn out to be philosophical and economic commentary relating to the global economic crisis. Everyone seems to know what’s going wrong, but in the end nothing changes.
