Free Admission

Christine Ödlund’s soundless “Atlantis” reveals a submerged world of billowing plants and sunken architecture, where a few survivors remain in laboratories and bunkers beneath the surface. In its wake, we sense the aftermath of disaster, environmental crises, and melting polar caps. See “Atlantis” in the Mini Cinema on floor 2.

“Atlantis” (2009) by Christine Ödlund is based on scientific microscopic photographs in the spirit of the marine film-maker Jean Painlevé, whose credo was “science is fiction”. But our associations are also led in other directions – towards surrealism, mysticism and early science fiction. Christine Ödlund’s films, sound works and installations appear to listen in to a reality that lies beyond physicality.
