ANNA SCHIMKAT : Brot und Ro-sen

'Anna Schimkat's "Brot und Ro-sen" (Bread and Ro-ses) explores the connection between music, collective memory, and women's struggle for recognition through interviews with women from East and West Germany. The piece includes a score of sound and text fragments based on the interviewees' memories, which was first performed as a sound installation at the ODP Gallery in Leipzig, Germany. It was later performed live by young women at the Gallery for Contemporary Art Leipzig as part of the "Conscious Inability - The Archive Gabriele Stötzer" exhibition. The accompanying booklet includes Marcel Raabe's "Sound Space Body," (“Schall Raum Körper” in German language) and the vinyl's B-side features Schimkat and Raabe's interview collage "Takt halten kann ich nicht" (I can't keep tact).'
