4. The Developement of Art (Selected Stations):
On
18th Feb. 2006 we gave a short Anti-Live-Concert at Extrapool’s
Audiotoop, Extrapool, Tweede Walstraat 5, NL-6511 LN Nijmegen, it was a
kind of installation for puppets, on 27th May 2006 another
Anti-Live-Concert took place at 3. Mainzer KunstZwerg Festival by
Mainzer Kunstverein Walpoldenstr. 21 e. V.
You have been able to see three of our LP artworks at an exhibition KUNST IM QUADRAT by Museum
Huelsmann, Bielefeld, from 9th Feb. 2007 to 30th September 2007.
Together with the museum we presented an official artwork LP for this
exhibition, Edition Museum Huelsmann (EMH-Hase1), in
collaboration with (SHMF) and youdonthavetocallitmusic (SHMF-100EMH/youdo-1MH),
only offered at the museum store during the exhibition. The LP appeared
with painted labels and a collage cover, each one unique, the edition
is limited to 66 copies. All artworks are shown on this site under file
Edition Huelsmann. This exhibition was also part of the Lange
Museumsnacht Bielefeld in April 2007.
From
4th May 2007 to 14st June 2007 our first solo exhibition KOMMISSAR HJULER AND MAMA BAER
AT SCOTTLAND took place at Gallery Heart Fine Art Ltd., 6 Waterloo
Place, Edinburgh EH1 3EF, Scottland. The gallery showed seven large
paintings by Mama Baer, ten paintings from BROTKATZE-Zyklus, and
several objects from LA FLEUR, BLOEMENMBEET and PUPPE series by
Kommissar Hjuler, combined with a set of Anti-Live-Concerts. Moreover,
the Heart Fine Art Ltd. label Show and Tell Editions presents a special
edition of our (SHMF-100)-LP, limited to 35 copies, only available at
the gallery.
On
8th and 9th June 2007 we performed the painting action no. 1: TOTENHEMD
FUER SCHROTTFAHRZEUG, our drummer's car was ripe for the scrap heap,
so he allowed us to paint his car. It took two days to grind off the
red
car lacquer, to fix a white grounding coat, then paint the car with
abstract figueres by Mama Baer and text fragments by Kommissar Hjuler,
simply to
get the car scrapped afterwards. We were totally drunk the two days,
and lots of people came to see us work, mostly were upset about
this provocative painting action.
Klaus Fabricius
bought the painted object and together with Dirk Brenzel he now
sells 88 square parts from the painted car body, we call it Die
88-TEILE-VERKAUFS-BESTATTUNG, and it is part of the (SHMF) now.
On
9th June 2007 a private party developed into a concert by Kommissar Hjuler
Allstar Band. We played a version of Frankie Teardrop and then
had to leave the party, noone wanted us to stay there any longer. The
CD-R WANDERUP INDOOR RIOT shall give you an impression of the party
and our concert.
The
next Anti-Live-Concert took place at the Hoerbar im B-Movie,
Brigittenstraße 5, 20359 Hamburg - St. Pauli,
together with other artists for their UNUEBERHOERBAR action on 29th
June 2007. This action turned out to be an Anti-Live-doch-da-Konzert.
We have been there as visitors, after the anti-live has started, I
began to disturb the concert, soon it developed into a loud dispute
with two organizers and the audience, at the end I destroyed the stage
arrangement, screaming arround, that I could do it much better, then
began to play the song previously played anti-live. After two minutes
Mama Baer came to the stage singing her part of the track, and one
after another the people recognized that we are Kommissar Hjuler und
Frau. Four guests were that upset, that they left during the dispute.
Guido
Zimmermann of the Bad Alchemy team was at the Hoebar this evening, he
wrote an article about our Anti-Live-doch-da-Konzert for the Bad
Alchemy No. 55.
At
July 2007 Artware,
Taunusstraße 63b, D-65183 Wiesbaden, started a file ARTWARE
GALLERY on their website and offered paintings and objects by Kommissar
Hjuler and Mama Baer for set-sale as an online-gallery. You have been
able able to visit Artware to see the complete set, but all oof a
sudden Donna Klemm died in June 2008, so at the moment it is not clear,
if a contribution and exhibition by Artware will go on.
Since
3rd July 2007 our new LP commissaris hjuler
en mama beer --- mensen die kort staan voor de zelfdoding (ultar eczema
44) containing the tracks frankie traan/in de bronx/heidie
(edition
of 300 copies) is available from ultra eczema by Dennis Tyfus, Italielei 63, 2000 Antwerp, Belgium. This is our
fourth regular vinyl release - the first release on a different label

Our second solo exhibition APPLE-GRETCHEN took place
from 15th July to 18th August 2007 at Freies Kunst- und Kulturhaus der KKI
Flensburg, KKI-Laboratorium, 24939 Flensburg, Duburger Straße 14. In
three rooms we presented the installation Apple-Gretchen, several
objects and larger paintings. On 5th August there was a special
performance at the KKI-Laboratorium: ---See Us Work!---. The exhibition
ended with a performance by Kommissar Hjuler Allstar Band on 17th
August, at 10.00 pm, at the KKI's Hakro Massandro Festival.
For
their exhibition APPLE-GRETCHEN both created one work on an unborn child Mama
Baer has lost in the eleventh week of her pregnancy, October 2005.
Kommissar Hjuler and Mama Baer have been sure to get a girl at that
time, wanted to call her Apple-Gretchen. Maybe god did not want them to
call a person Apple-Gretchen and so let her lose the child, who knows.
Mama Baer and Kommissar Hjuler expect, that simply something
was wrong with the child, a part of natural selection. Anyway,
they both began with works on a child named Apple-Gretchen, both works
have been finished in 2007.
After
the exhibition Apple-Gretchen we created a special exhibition room of
glass in front of our Asylum Lunaticum, where we show Kommissar
Hjuler's Apple-Gretchen since 20th August 2007.

exhibition by us is planned for second half of 2008.
On
29th and 30th September we have been visited by Arnulf Meifert of the
1. Deutsches Trivaleum, we made some recordings that days, but with
hindsight we could only say that we are not able to make recordings
together with other people, our expectations on music are too
explicit, too fixed, we guess.
On 3rd of November 2007 we performed
live on stage as a part of JaDa Land’s PAULO POST FUTURUM festival at
Lokaal 01, Klosterlaan 138, NL-4811 EE Breda: Retect, EXbroTkatzENDED,

November we made another anti-live-concert at the mikro_makro Festival,
Alternative Theatre, Slupsk/PL,

Poland will follow.

In
April 2008 we made a performance-tour with four live-concerts. On 17th
April we we played at ZAKK Bremen, Sielpfad 11, together with Foeten mit
Floeten. There also was a group improvisation planned by us, but Foeten mit
Floeten were too drunk, so we canceled this idea and only gave two seperate
performances. On 18th April we played at
Extrapool,
Tweede Walstraat 5, NL-6511 LN Nijmegen, which was the first concert
after their renovation. We found a room still not painted and were
allowed to style the room for the concert. So we styled it in
the vein of Kommissar Hjuler's work Psychatrie. The next day Mama Baer
und Frau played toegether with Madame P, Danielle Lemaire, Orphan
Fairytale, Leonie Ruissen, and Heidi Mortensen at the Ladyland-Concert, De Overslag, Eindhoven/NL, and on 20th April we followed an invitation by Knut Kargel for the Kunstraum B of Sylvia ellis Kruck, Am Mittelhafen 58, 48155 Muenster, same location of the Meine Fresse Club/Muenster.

to 19th July 2008 we followed an invitation by the Flensborg Fjords Kunst & Kulturforening (FFKK), Graasten/Denmark, we were allowed to fill a complete room with paintings and objects for their exhibition FAENGSLENDE
KUNST (bound art), another guest of the FFKK for this exhibition was
Eckhardt Kowalke. For the room set we were not allowed to show ANMUT by
Mama Baer, which was an even bigger problem for Eckhardt Kowalke as for
us, he was very angry about this censorship and was arguing a lot
with the leadership in order to help us showing our pictures. Also our
other works did not fit to the even more adaptive style of their
painting shown, so that the FFKK officially dissociated from our work
presented.
On
8th of July 2008 we performed Brotkatze fuer Paul McCarthy in a very
extended version at Court Room Graasten/Denmark. I was asked
strictly not to appear naked, but I could not

possible, if we could appear at the exhibition, in Japan it would
be enough to appear for two days and finissage, but we would not get

We
now work on a series of split LPs with the white-funk / post-punk band
Medium Medium. Their album - The Glitterhouse (Cherry Red Records,
1981) - was one of the first LPs I owned and still own. Their music is
often compared
to A Certain Ratio, Gang Of Four, Spandau Ballet, Public Image Limited,
Pop Group or Pig Bag, but to me their music always sounded different
and really unique. The LP - The Glitterhouse - still belongs to my most
favourite records ever. The
british band splited up, had a reunion lateron and today settled down
at USA, a linkt to their website is at the file Links. Since
about one year I am in contact with Steve Harvey, and I
now had the idea of presenting some Split-LPs with this great
band. Each LP shall be in coloured vinyl, limited to 100 copies only.
For the first LP we will have extraits from a live concert in 2008, for
the second one extraits from a concert in 2009. The recordings are
together with singer John Rees Lewis, who founded C Cat Trance
after their splitting up, with Alan Turton, Andy Ryder, and Steve
Harvey. A third LP with new, unreleased studio tracks we also have in
mind, and maybe a fourth is possible, this is the start of a series.
Our part of the Split-LP shall be the more fluxus oriented
tracks by Kommissar Hjuler, so that we call the series: Fluxus und Funk.

5. Anmerkungen zu einzelnen Werken / Comments on Selected Works:
MUTTERS
NEUE EIERSTOECKE: On 24th of July 2008 my 81-year-old mother
Ellen Hjuler's overy with a tumor (diameter of 10 inches) was taken out
of her abdomen at the Hospital of University Kiel. I asked the
professor for my mother's overy and the tumor to built a sculpture of
these organs, but I was not allowed to trade the cancerous viscera for
my self-built overy. My mother still lives without her overy, her new
overy is hanging at the wall of her living rooms. The work shows a play
on the German term Eierstoecke (eggsticks) for overy, which consist of
the terms eggs and sticks, so for mother's new overy I simply took eggs
and wooden sticks, glued inside a wooden frame, and behind glass, such
simple arrangement would not suffer from cancer.
SONGZHUANG:
When modern art from China became popular for Western collectors,
several painters from first generation settled down at a town called
SongZhuang, but soon some artsist not as popular settled down at this
town and became popular simply for living here. Nowadays also
non-chinese painters try to settle down there. The assamblage for
Brotkatze shows 17 painters of the first painters generation building
the inner circle of the city, inside a wooden frame. Outside are some
free parcels for any rich new painters to settle down and become
welknown soon. And on the right side are some pacels from non-chinese
painters, different colours for the parcels, Brotkatze of black dough.
In Brotkatze's univers nuts symbolize fame, honor, wealth and power,
here the nuts are in the parcels, moreover, lots of nuts become washed
ashore, as if this were an island of fame, and for Western collectors
of art it is an island of fame. This work was specially built as a contribution
to Stadt Macht Kunst exhibition at Hannover, November 2008, curated by
a7.ausstellungen e. V. The a7.ausstellungen e. V. decided not to take it for the
exhibition, it does not fit to the other pictures. The a7.ausstellungen e.
V. seemingly wanted to make a good looking patchwork of all paintings,
so good to hear that my painting does not fit, I am not making any art
for decoration.
BLEISTIFTREGEN/PENCILRAIN: In
Brotkatze's world shavings of pencil fall down as rain, for Brotkatze
at their point of development there must be a god sharpening pencils in
heaven, somewhen in the future Brotkatze will know for sure that
shavings from pencils get heated by sun, they evaporate, cool down in
the hemisphere and fall down as rain again, but few Brotkatze will
still believe in a god sharpening pencils.
BUCHHANDLUNG:
First of all the work is a play with the German term for book store,
and the shelf with books looks like a tiny book store, if one has
the term book store in mind. The German term consists of the two terms
BUCH (book) and HANDLUNG (plot), so I decided to present a novel-like
plot in several of my books. Each book presents a self-contained part
of the complete plot, a short text alike "She stands with her eyes
shut at the window" or "Another day of her life has started with a
sunny afternoon" or "Her husband is not at home" and in the sequel
of all text parts from the book we have the complete plot of my
BUCHHANDLUNG.
The beholder of my work can take a certain
book from its place and replace it to another place in the shelf,
so that the complete plot will change, but also will give a sence. And
if there are two beholders or more at same time, the plot will change
while they were taking books from their places, reading them, replacing
them on a different place in the shelf, or the plot will be kept, if
all books will be replaced at their place before. In the end, the
complete plot is alwasy the same, but the parts of the plot appear at
different times. So for my exhamples it could be "She stands with her
eyes shut at the window. Another day of her
life has started with a sunny afternoon. Her husband is not at
home" or "Another day of her
life has started with a sunny afternoon. Her husband is not at
home. She stands with her eyes shut at the window." or "Her
husband is not at
home. She stands with her eyes shut at the window. Another day of
her
life has started with a sunny afternoon." and so on. The text parts
here chosen are not from my plot, is is simply an example to show the
deeper sense of my work.
If
you will transfere the BUCHHANDLUNG to the real life, there are
two components: DESTINY (for the complete plot) and CHANCE (for the
sequence of all single parts of the plot).
DIE KIRCHE: Die Kirche
(the church) is a set of paintings by mama baer dealing with the theme
"Jesus as a human being" - a human being with all his wants on the one
hand and a determed mission one can hardly bear on the other hand. The
Holy Bible always shows him as a man with few wants or without any
wants, but Mama Baer reflected about this point of view and shows Jesus
between normal sexual longings. A male being is hardly able to
control sexual longings. So there must have been a conflict for
the man Jesus. To Mama Baer celibacy can only be understood as a fight
against the sexual longings.
Her painting SERIAL JESUS shows him breaking with all conventions and must be regarded as part of the set DIE KIRCHE.
Mama
Baer began with the set of paintings, when we were told by Heiko
Hasenbein, one of our biggest private collectors, that he had plans for
an exhibition of some of our paintings he owns at Evangelische
Markusgemeinde Bielefeld, and that the pastor allready has given his
assent to the exhibition for early 2009. We wanted to contribute more
works dealing with the church, and this is, what Mama Baer had in
mind. The chairmen of the parish canceled the project after having seen
our website, They decided, that artists like us should not be allowed
to exhibit at a church, a decision we both could not understand, I
guess they made the fault not to differ between us as artists and us as
human beings, as artists we might appear provokative and sometimes
perverted, but in the real life we are a normal and even more
narrow-minded family. They should have kept in mind, that Kommissar
Hjuler works as a police officer, not as a perverted mass murderer,
their art is a reflection on several influences of society, so the
society might be sick, not the artists reflecting.
Anyway, we now
asked several more parishes, if they are interested into our
exhibition, and if you have any ideas for a location, Please contact us!
DIERBAAR
BESTIARIUM: When I talked with Grace de la Luna of iLLUSEUM about the
theme of their summer festival Diebaar betsiarium, I totally
misunderstood the theme, I expected it to be a critic on human
behaviour not simply a catalogue of all life forms. And so I explained
it wrong to Mama Baer. She at that time just found an old article from
the 60ies about a dangerous Slovakian plant, that dangerous, that the
extract could kill all mankind. And that is, what her paintings of this
series deal with, an epidemic break-out, possibly a weappon, possibly
the revenge of the nature. Infected people get stored into camps, a
doctor makes his experiments with infected people. (Kommissar Hjuler)
6. Mail Art Projects/Artists Collaborations:
We made several contributions to mail art projects by other
artists, some of these works have become shown at exhibitions
like Brandstifter's 3. KunstZwergFestival, the Contemporary Art (BUT)
exhibitions at Itami City Gallery, or Christian Mildbrandt's Schoko Casana Rosso, possibly an exhibition at Staedtische Bibliothek Neukoelln in 2010, and some works are presented online at Luboyr Tymkiv's M-A-Group, Roland Halbritter's Andreas-Hofer-mailART project, Maurizo
Follin's mail-art show, or Christine Tarantino's Words of Light, and
Keith A. Buchholz, who runs a blog and makes exhibitions from time to
time at Fluxus St. Louis/Artfarm, 4615 Oregon Av., St. Louis/USA.
And
some collectors can be visited by the audience, they show the work in a
permanent exhibition at their home place, for instance Vittore Baroni,
Via C. Battisti 339, Italia - 55049 Viareggio, who's collection
contains several mail art objects by us.
Roland
Halbritter presented a set of fluxus stamps with the artwork
we contributed to his Andreas-Hofer-mailArt project. Also the
M-A-Group presented a little catalogue about their mail-art project.
For
music performances we have been collaborating live on stage with John
Wiese (USA), Eugene Chadbourne (USA), Professor Jan van den
Dobbelsteen and Danielle Lemaire (NL) as project JaDaMaBaPa, also have
been performing together with the band Caracho (D), and with Knut Kargel (D) on 26th of
September 2009, also with Peter Kastner (D) on 4th
of December 2009, with Wolf D. Schreiber/San Siro (D) on 6th of February 2010, and with Harappian Night Recordings (UK), Ludo Mich (B), Closedunruh
(D), and Clive Graham of
Morphogenesis (UK), ZEBU! (USA), and Dead Labour Process (UK).
And several concerts
are in
preparation, for instance with Detlev Weigand (D), Ju Suk Reet meate and Oblivia from Smegma (USA), Raymond Dijstra (NL), La STPO (F), Klaus Girnus (D), Brandstifter (D).
Moreover
some mail collaborations for music are existing, a special
project is the (SHMF-019+...), see no. 8 of this list!
Moreover,
we will be more open for collaborations with other artists in
2010, you will find a special file for these works!
The photographer Josef Karl
from Gruenwald/Munich asked us to work with some of his fotos and some
given objects of his and his wife Natalie's dead son Christopher. See
point 7 of this list for detailed information!
Moreover,
he gave to me some of his female ID photographies and some
polaroids he has collected for a year to create my very own sculptures
and assemblages with. One result are my fem.ID-Puppen, of which I
created one for each
model in Josef Karl's latest book.
Eine fem.ID-Naschbox
ist ein Schuettelbild, in dem ein Fotoset und
eine abstrahierte Figur samt Naschbeilagen farblich arrangiert sind.
So einfach sollte man
es sich nicht machen, denn die Bilder von Josef Karl signalisierten für
mich gleich bei erster Sichtung eine jeweils eigene und explizit
suggerierte Identitaet der Fotografierten, jeweils mit latenter Erotik.
Sie wirkten für mich zum Anbeissen, so dass ich hierzu sofort den
Bezug zur Suessigkeit herstellte und weiter
mit einer figuerlichen Darstellung immer eine weitere Darstellerinnen
hinzufuegen wollte, um so ein personelles Verbindungsglied zwischen
Fotografie und Rahmung herzustellen.
Die Bilder
signalisieren so eine Einheit, auch wenn der Inhalt, also die Suessigkeit
beweglich ist und variiert werden kann, veraendert dieses nicht das
jeweilige Zusammenspiel. So entstanden hier 20 kleine Identitaeten, die
als Schüettelbild zudem einem Kaeufer die
Moeglichkeit offerieren, am endgültigen Ausdruck mitzuwirken, so dass er nicht nur die ihm am
ehesten zusagende Identitaet erwerben kann, sondern durch Zurechtschüetteln der Suessigkeiten Einfluss
auf das letztendliche Aussehen des Assemblage hat und so Teil an der
Identitaet nimmt. (Interview Kommissar Hjuler)
And
Mama Baer worked together with Klaus Girnus from Xanten at a series of
paintings that were sold together with our Split-LP at
Psych.KG/DVR/HGA
as an artists special.
Kommissar
Hjuler worked together with Norbert Futscherndorf (A), and just works
with Raphael Avenant (F).
We
also work with Detlev Weigand (D) and with the artists couple Francis Tucker and C.mak (D).
We just both collaborated with
Barbara Rapp (A) and then had the idea for a kind of art gang banging,
to chose some artists that work together on several objects and
paintings in small groups or possibly all together, as there are Barbara Rapp (A), Maks Dannecker (D),
Markus Bittermann (A), C.mank & Francis Tucker (D), and us. An exhibition is planned for 2012
at Galerie Offenes Atelier D. U. Design, Dorothee
Unkel, Postgasse 6, Villach/A.
We started a file ZUSAMMENARBEITEN on our website ! Hopefully a lot of collaborations will follow.
7. Brotkatze Collaborations Project by Babara Rapp & Kommissar Hjuler:
The
first Brotkatze figures I created 2002, I guess, then went on creating
several series of collectable figures in my (SHMF). Since 2006 I
worked out assemblages that focus on fictive aspects of Brotkatzes
culture, society and religion, and at least they were in war with
Votzekatze, an emperior from a different galaxy, developed any further
as Brotkatze. So Brotkatze to me became an alter ego of mankind,
letting me reflect on any curious behaviour of people in the
assemblages, as the descriptions of my works SONGZHUANG and BLEISTIFTREGEN/PENCILRAIN show, see point 5 of this list!
In
2008 one series of 52 figures was sold by Art-O-Mat (USA). Some
Brotkatze works have been part of our exhibitions, an exhibition of
only Brotkatze took place at Galerie O Tannenbaum, Berlin, April 2008.
End
of 2009 I started inviting some artists to work with my
Brotkatze figures, the first collaborative artwork was by Eric Lunde
(USA), a little installation in glass frame, shown at file
Brotkatze. Another collaborative work is by Thomas Wolff (D) and
me. Claudio Parentela (I), ellis Kruck (D), Knut Kargel (D),
Detlev Weigand (D), Francis Tucker and C.mank
(D), Maks Dannecker (D), Roland Halbritter (D), Barbara Rapp (A), Eric
Lunde (USA), Christine Tarantino
(USA), Cody Brant (USA), Norbert Futscherndorf (A), Dorota-Katarzyna Samborski (D), Clemens Stecher (A) and P. Cornelius Rinne (D) confirmed to this project, and a lot will follow, I hope.
All works are property of the artist who created the work, all artists
work with figures given to them in their very own way, same princimple
as for (SHMF-019+...).
The first exhibition of these collaborations took place at Galerie Atelier
Kargel, Welver.
Since
this time I run the project together with Barbara Rapp (A), who is
really engaged in the project and does a lot of the promotion work.
We have in preparation another exhibition of Brotkatze Collaborations for 2011, at Kunsthaus Michel, Schweinfurt.
8. Christopher Karl ist tot.
The photographer Josef Karl
from Gruenwald/Munich asked Kommissar Hjuler to work with fotos and some
given objects of his and his wife Natalie's dead son Christopher.
In
September 2008 Natalie and Josef Karl have not been able to find a
place at a day-nursery by their local community of Munich to give away
their 14-month-old son Christopher during the daytime, so both decided
to give their son to the private nursemaid Alexandra S., mother of two
daughters, to look after their son, while they both were at work.
Although
the nursemaid was recommended by the community, she turned out to be
seemingly overcharged with her job, and on 25th of September 2008 she
thoroughly shook the crying Christopher that hard, that the
14-month-old child got a cerebral haemorrhage and died two days later.
Josef
Karl expects art to be the best
way of compensation, and we are glad to be chosen by him to work with
original photographies and documents, Christopher's original passport, objects of Christopher, some of Christopher's favourite toys, and a lot of information.
So Mama Baer and Kommissar Hjuler focussed on
several aspects of this interesting case.
The
work you will find at file ZUSAMMENARBEITEN, and some work on the theme
by Mama Baer is at file MALEREI, but Josef Karl did not want her to
continue creating works, after she started her first paintings.
At our file LINKS you will be led to an article by Sueddeutsche Zeitung - Magazin - Christopher Karl ist tot (at letter K).
Die verschiedenen
bereits entstandenen und noch in der Entstehung befindlichen Kurbeln
repraesentieren ein Jedermanns-Prinzip, das doppelte Austauschbarkeit
darstellt, zum einen kann jedes Kind in die Rolle des Gedrehten kommen,
zum anderen sind die Bediener der Kurbel austauschbar.
In einer Ausstellung
wird man diese Kunst zum Anfassen eher spielerisch ein wenig drehen, die
deutlich abstrahierte Aussage wird hier dem Betrachter aber zum Teil
durch aufgeklebte Texte nahe gebracht, er soll realisieren, dass es kein
Spiel ist, sondern Realitaet.
Natalie und Josef
Karl waren gezwungen, ihren Sohn in eine solche Kurbel zu legen, in der
Annahme, dass die Kommune genau kontrolliert, wer die Kurbel bedient.
Dass hier aber jemandem, bei dem Beschwerden vorlagen, weiter erlaubt
wurde, Kinder zu kurbeln, das zeigte auf, dass die Austauschbarkeit im
wahren Leben allgegenwaertig ist. So ist eine Jedermannskurbel eine
Kritik daran, dass tatsaechlich jedermann einfach nach Lust und Laune die
Kurbel betaetigen kann und so das jeweilige Kind durchschuëttelt. Die Austauschbarkeit des
Kindes soll aufzeigen, dass jedermann auch gefordert ist, den Umstand
der Austauschbarkeit am Kurbelarm wirksam zu regulieren. Hier haben
diese Kontroll-Mechanismen versagt, im Vordergrund stand die Kurbelnde,
deren Berufseingliederung und Sozialisation der Vorrang gegenuëber der Gefahr einer
unkontrollierten Kurbelung eingeraeumt wurde. Nur wer erfaehrt davon?
Ein versteckter
Aspekt ist dabei auch die Jedermann-Frage fuër das Kurbeln an sich, das also
den Kontrollverlust infolge Ueberforderung darstellt.
Wenn hierbei dreist
zum Kurbeln bei Ueberforderung aufgefordert wird, dann spiegelt dieses
wieder, dass unsere gesamte Gesellschaft diesen Leistungsdruck schuert, dem Leute oftmals nicht
standhalten koennen.
Die Kurbel ist so
bewusst abstrahierte Kritik, dass sie viele Ansaetze zum Nachdenken liefert, und
das macht Gesellschaftspolitik doch aus.
Der fehlende Abschied
ist ebenfalls Thematik einiger Assemblagen, so in Herbstzeitlose, ein
Titel der an die Deutsche Lyrik zum Ende des 19. bzw. Anfang des 20.
Jahrhunderts erinnert, der Herbst als sich metaphorisch ankuëndigendes Lebensende, die Zeit
des Abschieds, nur hatten die Eltern diese Zeit nicht, der Herbst kam
vor dem Fruëhling. (Interview Kommissar Hjuler)
My
works on the theme of Josef's lost son have taken a lot of time and a
lot of my haert's blood has been flown directly into these works I
created. He
had the idea for several exhibitions containing these works by me, and
I will be proud, whenever my work is shown as a lttle part ofhis very own project.
9. (SHMF-019+…) - Collaboration Project:
Kommissar
Hjuler and Mama Baer run a project called
(SHMF-019+…) for which any artists are allowed to create versions of
the reading DIE ANTIZIPATION DES GENERALIZED OTHER. A tape, several
CD-Rs and some LPs still have become released in this series on
Der Schoene-Hjuler-Memorial-Fond. A list of all artists that have been committing you will
find at file (SHMF), just see no. (SHMF-019) following!
The Generalized Other refers to George Herbert Mead's
psychological explanation for the origin of social self-consciousness.
Within Mead's theory, is the act of 'role-taking' in which individuals
react to social gestures, and adjust to common attitudes. Through 'role-taking', people adapt to social exchanges based on
gesture-response action sequences. Self-consciousness is then developed
through these social actions and completed upon personal reflection.
This text is hard to handle for other artists, we now have given away
quite a lot of free Audio-CD-Rs to other artists, but only few were
able to work with our spoken text. It is a stumbling dialogue with
reading parts and conversation parts and in the result we do by far not
justice to the grandilocant or intellectual theme.
Mainly artists and musicians from experimental music scene have
contributed, but not at least, this project is
to create a mix of most different music styles, one of the latest
contributions was by the Afro-French Urban-Rap- and Dub-musician LO
daam, who normally creates music far from any experimental scene,
and at the moment the dark
metal band HELLMOUTH from Rotterdam works on a version.
Artists
and musicians, who are interested into creating their personal version
for this project, could get a promotional Audio-CD-R with the spoken
text, the versions sent back become released on our label, the
artists will get some free copies. Especially artists from very
different music scenes are invited for their contribution, also film
works or collages and paintings as limited prints are possible, it need
not be the medium music, anything goes.
Several more collaboration works like the
mail-collaboration between Rudolf Eb.er of Schimpfluch Group (SHMF -
Eb.er), LP in limited edition, re-issued as a CD by Blossoming
Noise/USA in edition of 1000 copies, or the experimental smalltalk
with Juergen O. Olbrich of
NO-Institue/Paper Police (SHMF - 155), CD-R in limited edition, which is also
a set for other anti-live acts, are possible.
So anyone is invited to become part
of the (SHMF)!
10. Radio or Television Transmissions / Interviews / Other Platforms:
Some
tracks like WALDKINDERGARTEN, DIE LUSTIGEN ABENTEUER VON PISCHI PISCHI
UND MIFF MAFF, and our very
special versons of some KoRn-songs have been played at WFMU radio USA
by Kenny G (Kenneth Goldsmith) and are now available as mp3-file on
their website, some other tracks like STALKING have been played at
radio sessions by Clive Graham, London.
The
Westdeutscher Rundfunk
(WDR), Radio 1Live, 50600 Koeln, visited us here at Flensburg and
recorded an interview in March 2007, they presented parts of the
interview for a radio special on Kommissar Hjuler and Mama Baer in May 2007.
Mama Baer now is supported by
WOMENSRADIO, 2121 Peralta St., Ste # 138, Oakland, CA 94607, USA,
presenting her music for several radio transmissions and some tracks as
mp3-files on their website.
In
June 2008 Erfundenes Land has visited us and recoded a longer interview
for an internet-radio transmission on Kommissar Hjuler and Mama Baer
they presented several times that month.
And, as mentioned at activities before, on 16th Februar 2008 the Radio Free Radio
Wisconsin WRCT 88.fm, USA has made a radio special for the complete weekend
on Widémouth Tapes leader tENTATIVELY, a cONVENIENCE, Mama Baer and Kommissar Hjuler.
On
11th January 2009, at 10:00 p.m. the austrian radio station AGORA
105,5, Paracelsusgasse 14, A-9020 Klagenfurt, will make a
two-hours-special on us with a live interview we will make that
evening with Ralf-Dieter Abraham and Prof. Dr. Mag. Josef
Wagner of the University Klagenfurt, a transmission
by internet stream and at Kaernten also by antenna /radio.
Well, Google leads
you to several more radio
stations playing our music.
Since
22nd of September 2008 the local television channel of Flensburg,
Offener Kanal
Flensburg,
www.okflensburg.de, shows several films by us each week at their cabel
tv
channel at different dates. On 20th of February 2009 they send a film
team to make a trailer with us for the cultural magazine Flash TV of
the local televison channel of Kiel, Offener Kanal Kiel, www.okkiel.de,
and a long trailer for their own local tv channel, so we were part of
the Schleswig-Holstein Kulturmagazine Flash TV on 2nd April 2009, the
long trailer was shown at local televion Flensburg on 17th April 2009.
On 5th of November 2009 the Offener Kanal Flensburg made a special TV
event on Kommissar Hjuler and Mama Baer, presenting only films by us
for the complete daytime.
Interviews
and articles or reviews have been
published by Bad Alchemy, Betonbruch, brainwashed, de Afgrond, Foxy Digitalis,
Heathen Harvest, Inside Artzine, My
Way, Vital Weekly, and some more,
a longer
interview we gave for the Testcard Magazine (volume 16). In 2006 or
2007 Thurston Moore recommended our music in an article he wrote for
the
US-Magazine
ARTHUR, Thurston expected us to be one of the most innovative newcomer
projects, we are in contact with Thurston since this article. Also the
US-Magazine REVIEWER and British magazine THE WIRE just asked for
information about us to focus on us. In
spring 2008 we gave a long interview for the artlout Magazine Leipzig,
www.artlout.com,
this interview has become part of the issue 04:08 of this famous art
magazine, moreover, we have been chosen to work our the opposite
editorial for their issue 05:08. Both issues are available for free
download on their website (file media, then file vorherige Ausgaben,
click on image).
They
accepted some paintings by
us for their publicly owned collection artlout, also containing
paintings by
famous artists like Bacon, Basquiat, Beuys, Doig, Hirst, Kippenberger,
Koons, Meese, Paik, Rauch, Richter, and Twombly. This collection has
been shown at several museums and,
of course, will be shown there for the future.
Kinki
magazine Zurich has made an interview with us at
Kunstraum Winterthur.
An
interview was printed at Jukebox, magazine of K-RAA-K festival, in
spring 2010, and this interview you can also read at their website. A
translation of the interview will be shown at the magazine Hair
Entertainment Berlin as well and at the famous SKUG Magazine from Austria.
In January 2010 THE WIRE (UK)
recommended our CD asylum lunaticum as one of the top 15 releases of
the year 2009 in the vein of experimental music / outsider music. Their
complete year's review is listed up at issue no. 311 - rewind 2009.
At
their February issue then was an interesting review on our LP at
Feeding Tube Rec./USA and on us as musicians and artists in general.
You
will be able to find some of our work at net work organisations
like art for show, art highway, Artisho, atists, artnet,
Artnews,
art-perfect, artstu, especto, gallerybox, GLARN.net, masters of the
art, OPEN
Fluxus, RedBubble, Ungeschliffene Diamanten, Wobblybridge, Yetre,
zeigdeinekunst, and others. Used or sold out items you
might get by chance at Discogs or Ebay (membership as Kommissar_Hjuler),
information and free videos you will find at YouTube, Clipfish, and you
will find us at MySpace, and OPEN fluxus, of course.
11. Hand-Cut Vinyl / Audio-CD-Rs / Information on This Website:
In
our list called (SHMF) you will find all our releases, those
items sold out in our list might still be available at some stores,
especially Boekie Woekie is a good address to find some copies, Jan
Voss did not put all latest items given to him on commissional
basis on their set sale list. A lot of items we present as
hand-cut vinyl, we get these items from Maik Hoerth, Schloessleweg 3a,
D-78351 Ludwigshafen, who uses the technique of producing acetates for
vinyl plates, the result is not very far from pressed LPs, on some
quite passages one might hear background noises from cutting process,
but most picture discs sound not as good as his hand-cut LPs. Compared
to an acetate the music information does not get lost when playing the
record. The cutting of these LPs is very expensive for us and we sell
them for nearly the costs we have. This medium allows us to present
very limited vinyl editions, and some of them have just been just shown
at Museum Huelsmann. Due to the costs we do not have all LPs
available back in stock, so if a record not marked as sold out is of
interest to you, it normally takes about 14 days to have it
available.You will find more information under file (Order). The CD-Rs we present have become burned (real-time-process)
as high quality Audio-CD-Rs on a Pioneer compact disc recorder PDR-509,
all CD-Rs have printed labels, the covers are handmade by
Kommissar Hjuler. The list ARTWORKS shows a selection of (SHMF) covers artworks,
whereas the (SHMF-029Puppe)n are shown at a different file on this
website. Under files KOMMISSAR HJULER and MAMA BAER we present a selection of works by both artists.

Hjuler as characters:
DAS Puppets is the story of a lonely artist Dirty
Fritz, that takes a fancy to another man's wife Mama Baer, his feelings
grow into lust and he plans to steal the prize of his heart's desire
with the help of Gypsy Witch and secret her away to his studio lair of
strange puppets and enchanted arts. At first the woman falls under his
spell until her husband the policeman arrives and the great battle
begins.
Complete music for the film by Kommissar Hjuler und Frau, with special appearance by the Sex Socks.
At
mypscae you will find at the profile DAS Puppets a short view on this
film with pictures from the casting and from the set. So you can see
detailed how the brunette actress Kathleen Gregory becomes styled as
red-haired Mama Baer.
This profile at www.myspace.com also shows
a short sequence from the film presenting a concert or better Fred
Wilder's imagination of a concert by us,
shot with The Sex Socks, a weird screaming Kommissar Hjuler and an
alcohol drinking Mama Baer, not as strange as our performances, but a
good imagination for his film.
We will keep you informed!
