We cordially invite you to our upcoming event and would be very pleased to meet you there:

TIEFENRAUSCH (RAPTURE OF THE DEEP)
Art and Tours through the Underworlds of Linz
[a project in the framework of Linz 2009 European Cultural Capital]

introducing two new installations by alien productions:

Tiefenklang | es ist viel zutage gekommen [OK]
Nachhall | und gehört hat man nichts [Limonistollen]

OK Offenes Kulturhaus Upper Austria, Linz, A

30 May - 13 July, 2008
Opening: May 29, 2008, 6 p.m.
----------------------------------------------

For Tiefenrausch the OK becomes a temporary "Museum of the Underworlds", a headquarter for underground Linz.

An acoustic exhibition with spatial experience on the theme of "Linz Underworlds": the presentation ranges from the history of the National-Socialist tunnel systems to the planned West Ring Tunnel, and is based on interviews with contemporary witnesses, who have a connection with the underworld in different ways – tunnel workers, archivists, neighboring users, hobby tunnel explorers, people who sought refuge in the tunnels during the war, etc.

The fascinating material, recorded by Isabelle Muhr, is transformed by the artist collective alien productions into an audio installation. In a white tunnel system they lead visitors equipped with radio receivers through these stories, surprising them with unreally bright spaces and shifted perspectives.

artistic co-operation: Daniel Lercher
interviews: Isabelle Muhr
research: Georg Nussbaumer
set: Michael Weingärtner
comissioned by OK Offenes Kulturhaus
