ANNA SPANLANG

“Anna Spanlang’s works seek to limn a poetics of the ordinary while underscoring the politicaldimension of an everyday life in which community, friendship, and feminism are actually lived and notjust discussed. To make her films, she uses deft editing to reinterpret originally biographical videomaterial; her sharp wit and embracing empathy are unmistakable in the footage, which she recordedon her mobile phone.”

—Anne Faucheret, Kunsthalle Wien
