Projection on the Crisis (Gauweilereien in Munich)(2014)

Overview

Philipp Gufler's video installation "Projektion auf die Krise (Gauweilereien in Munich)" provides a kaleidoscopic look back at the beginnings of the AIDS crisis in Germany in the 1980s - a time when Munich's repressive policy against homosexuals reached its peak. The work brings together newspaper articles, posters, photos and press reports from this period. The historical material from the 1980s is commented on by artists.
