Tausend Verbindungen – Von Gesprächen zum Schmelzprozess und zurück

Oliver Walker’s architectural art concept for the Olof Palme Centre, entitled “A Thousand Connections”, involves dismantling disused electrical appliances. The recovered copper is melted down and cast into a samovar – an object that brings people together and can forge a thousand connections in the process. The discussion leads to stories about origins, memory, technology and change. And in doing so, it poses the central question: When does material become meaningful? And at what point does it become art?

With the artists Oliver Walker and Bernd Trasberger. In German.
