He currently resides in Berlin and Leipzig. Since 1998 he has exhibited mostly in Germany and France and has received several awards. Known for installations that exist in a realm between cinema and the fine arts, von Wedemeyer's moving-image works, shot on 35mm film or video, are usually accompanied by research material, video documentaries, or still photographs to illuminate the conception and production processes. Through their witty references, which allude to cinema classics as well as socio-critical topics and historical events, von Wedemeyer's works are meditations on a complex world. |
