THOMAS SCHÜTTE, ICH BIN NICHT ALLEIN
Deutschland 2023 – Director: Corinna Belz – Original w/ English subtitles (Q&A w/ director C. Belz & protagonist T. Schütte) – Length: 94 min.
Setting: a workshop. When it comes to Thomas Schütte’s larger than life sculptures, the work is hands on – and on an impressive scale. Sanding, sawing and milling are the order of the day. The artist, with a cigarette hanging out of his mouth, moulds the eyes of a figure with his own hands or sometimes uses computer simulation. Regardless of the machinery, technology or material, it becomes clear: art is hard work. Anja Klauck
