Ulrich Eller
Percussion of two spaces, a materials music (section)
For his exhibition 'Percussion of two spaces, a materials music' from
6.8. to 3.9.1983 Ulrich Eller examined the two spaces of the gallery
Giannozzo in their quality as sound material and as bodies of sound. The
spaces were hit, their walls and the floor: spots for sounds of
different pitch and timbre were discovered. At these places sheets of
drawing paper were attached: fields for lines of different strength and
length.
With a drawing pencil of black fat chalk Ulrich Eller worked now on
these papers on the walls and the floor and produced thereby both
drawings and sound sequences. The rhythms resulted from an emphaty into
the found sounds; the gestures of the drawings correspond to them. The
drawings remain in the places of their emergence. There also the sound
sequences remain. They were recorded on tape and played afterwards
simultaneously over tape recorders, which were fastened to the
appropriate places.
'The sounds of the space - in the space, a self sounding space. By the
percussion the space opens up for its perception. Its musical quality
becomes visible by the drawings and it becomes audible by the sound
recordings.' (Rolf Langebartels)
