Silke Scheuermann has written some wonderful poems, with prose I could now start their precious little. The day before yesterday she presented her new from novel "Shanghai Performance" in Karlsruhe. Here's my meeting today Badische the latest news:
"'in bad state of mind' it was as if her hometown of Karlsruhe public 'boring' called that Silke Scheuermann it still has a little larger rather she makes in her new novel." Shanghai performance "clearly, they introduced in their reading of the Literary Society in the Badische Landesbibliothek.
told In the first scene, she, like Luisa, the assistant to the performance artist Margaret Wincraft, can not sleep in the dead of night in a Shanghai hotel. rich in detail, she describes, even the smallest snapshot: 'I threw the damp washcloth the neon lamp on the mirror, but he did not hang, but splashed on the tile floor. " In the hotel bar, she secretly watches her boss, a sort of Pina Bausch, who appears in the course are unsympathetic. The Chinese city has
it Silke Scheuermann done, she says in the discussion and presents not only from their experience and slowly, either of the novel, but also on the art scene in China. The focus was no longer focused so much on Chinese art as it was a few years ago, it also supplements a detailed passage of the novel, in which Margot and Luisa strips by Shanghai galleries.
a cool art scene in a trendy metropolis, to a dazzling Main character and the rivalry between two women of different ages, which also have their private Trouble - this is the somewhat anemic substance that is made of the contemporary German literature. A fact that no interpretation of experiments such as Shanghai, the catalyst for a tragic event is "- in a second scene Scheuermann namely said that Margot is the only reason in Shanghai, to meet her daughter who was conceived during their studies in the U.S. by a Chinese and it has given away after the birth to devote himself entirely to her art - life is complicated. Worse, the daughter Luisa meets the first and must report to her boss that she is in a wheelchair.
No, the art world with his extrovert unmask they wanted, even if it end in a classic come to a purification of the protagonists. Rather, they wanted to talk about lifestyles that can tip over.
The audience was very practical questions. About why Margot and Luisa never used an incredible number of Shanghai's subways. Or the question of what it plans for next: A very small story, which plays at home and not in the big wide world. Well, that sounds more interesting than Shanghai. "
