Sag mir wo die Blumen sind (M.Dietrich)
(Dites-moi où sont les fleurs (M. Dietrich))
2009
Gregor Hildebrandt's assemblages include recording media from bygone days (vinyl records, cassettes, tape recordings) that embody his thoughts on the passing of time.
The artist derives his inspiration from film and music. For this collage he subverts a portrait of Mariene Dietrich, the famous German singer and actress. The tape and records that stud the work contain one of the star's sangs, the German version of Where Have Ali the Flowers Gone? Hildebrandt chooses popular tunes, in this case a universal pacifistic anthem, evoking intimate and collective memories.
