Sharon Lockhart: Films

Sharon Lockhart explores the boundaries of photography and moving images. The Filmmuseum presents a selection of Sharon Lockhart's films held by Sammlung Goetz. They range from her earliest to most recent works.

The immediate experience of time is one of the central aspects in Sharon Lockhart's films. By connecting her camera to a tripod, she defines a fixed frame in which everyday actions take place. The content of her films is often related to her ethnographic interests. Many of her works, for example Teatro Amazonas, develop in close connection with her photographs.
Lockhart comes from the structural film tradition of the 1960s and 1970s. The series in the Filmmuseum conveys insights into her conceptual approach. Her most recent film NO, which records a Japanese couple working in a field in a quiet landscape, celebrates its European premiere.

Cyrill Lachauer. The Sunset Route

feat. Mike Brodie, Mouse Green, Rhyw, Mia Justice Smith, Moritz Stumm

In the exhibition The Sunset Route, on view at the Kunstpalais Erlangen and created in collaboration with the Sammlung Goetz, Cyrill Lachauer presents works from 2020 to 2025, a period during which he traveled on freight trains through the USA, Mexico, and Bosnia. In the spirit of poetic ethnography, he created photographs and films that are now being shown together for the first time. They all explore questions of freedom, self-determination, and resistance, as well as colonization, exclusion, and exploitation.
