The works of the artist Anette Rose examine non-verbal body language. She films faces and hands, facial expressions and movements of the hand synchronously. She creates a connection between these gestures of work and of expression: how do the hands and eyes affect diverse work processes? How are machines replacing work formerly done by hand? He links her observations of workshops, laboratories, operating theatres, museums and libraries and her process of questioning in installations, in her “encyclopaedia of operations”. This catalogue documents this encyclopaedia within the context of the museum, while montages of her research material provide insight into artistic research as part of art practice.

Biography:
Anette Rose studied at the Hochschule der Künste in Berlin with Valie Export and Heinz Emigholz and at the Central Saint Martins College of Art in London. In her art practice she uses strategies taken from documentaries; these deal with real life, while she works with the reduction of the real. Her video films and installations flow between the contexts of art, film and science.
