HEINZ EMIGHOLZ: THE FORMATIVE YEARS
Extra City presents the early works of German experimental filmmaker and artist Heinz Emigholz. His work transcends institutional and artistic boundaries and disciplines. While today he is internationally acclaimed for his films portraying buildings by architects such as Adolf Loos, Rudolph Schindler and Bruce Goff. Emigholz played a decisive role in the international experimental film movement in the 70.

FALKE PISANO: (CONDITIONS OF AGENCY)
Falke Pisano's publication Figures of Speech (JRP-Ringier, Christoph Keller Editions, 2010) comprises her recent work with a focus on the act of speech in relation to different forms of agency in artistic production. The publication, largely based on a performative practice of writing, involves a circulation and exchange of language, ideas, and form and will be the basis for a spatial translation in the project space of Extra City.
