Details
Gob Squad is a group of UK and German artists, based in Nottingham and Berlin. Working collectively since 1994, the group makes and presents its work in urban sites such as offices, houses, shops, railway stations and hotels as well as in galleries and theatres. Using the language of film, TV and pop music to explore the complexities and absurdities of life today, Gob Squad's work is a search for beauty, meaning and humanity amongst the glittering facades and dark corners of contemporary culture. Sometimes improvised, sometimes strictly choreographed, the work is always provocative, entertaining and emotionally charged. After all, things will never be the same again, so let's make history. On a not particularly special day in a not particularly special place Gob Squad will save the world before it ends. From sunrise to sunset, they will try to get everything they can onto a very very wide screen film. It’s a Noah´s Ark for the 21st Century. Without rewinding or reshooting, the film will condense a day into the length of a video tape, to create a unique portrait of your city for an unknown future.
