On the walls of the Mondial, visitors saw video projections by artist Marianne Müller. Using two staggered cameras, whose images were projected next to each other with a slight time delay, she observed scenes beyond the sensational and picturesque, which are thought-provoking precisely because of their strange everydayness: street scenes, market hustle and bustle, journeys through half-finished desert suburbs and mountain landscapes, the passing of ships in a harbour, All Souls' Day in a Mexican cemetery. Slow-moving images that invite us to look carefully and closely. No ethno-spectacle, no pseudo-critical meaningfulness, no holiday sultanas. Images of the kind you see yourself when travelling, from the window of a car, waiting at a food stall, strolling aimlessly in a foreign city. Müller showed reality as a temporal structure of movement and buildings, light and landscape, body and dress, morning calm and midday crowds, coincidence and habit. Quite simply the unobtrusive truth of reality.
