Ground floor: Amidst poems put together with photographs of letters made of human shit - the kakabet stands a public toilet that offers new and surprising sights. First floor: huge paintings of the serie "Guernica" made of plastilin and in honor of Picassos famous work. Second floor: Here Gelatin has build a whole cinema. In the movie "How do I Survive the Afternoon" totally innocent but full of curiosity they explore functions of the human body. Third floor: Sadly the mudpuddle on the top föoor was closed due to technical problems.
April 13 - May 28, 2008

Die erste große Schau Museumsschau von Gelatine "Chinese Synthese Leberkäse" im Bregenzer Kunsthaus beginnt im Erdgeschoß mit dem "Kakabet". Gedichte, zusammen gesetzt aus Fotos von zu Buchstaben geformtem menschlichen Kot. Im Mittelpunkt eine verspiegelte Toilette in Form eines Hochstandes mit ungewohntem Einblick. Im ersten Stock sind großformatige Plastilinbilder aus der Serie "Guernica" in Anlehnung an das berühmte Gemälde von Picasso gehängt und im zweiten Stock haben Gelatine ein ganzes Kino mit mehreren Sälen errichtet. In dem Film "How do I Survive the Afternoon" untersucht das Künstlerkollektiv unschuldig neugierig Körperfunktionen. Der im obersten Stock angelegte Schlammsaal musste aus technischen Gründen leider schon bald nach der Eröffnung geschlossen werden.
