During opening weekend Ersan Mondtag’s new work “The Temple” will be activated for the first time through his likewise new performance “Becoming Sculptures”. Both works have been commissioned by Staatliche Kunsthalle Baden-Baden.
Different tracks of storytelling on human existence and alien forms are followed by an accumulation of acts, events, and discussions; all taking place in a humid temple architecture, a proposal for a temporary museum by Mondtag, that will dry out over time. The temple refers to ancient structures, where social, private, political and transcendent fields intersected.
Ersan Mondtag works in the fields of theatre, music, performance and installation. He has worked at Thalia Theater Hamburg, Schauspiel Frankfurt, Maxim Gorki-Theater Berlin and Münchner Kammerspiele, among others.
