Alice Creischer, Feindsliebchen, 2002
Alice Creischer related her video work “Feindsliebchen” to the encounter of the American and Soviet generals in May 1945 in Erlauf. In the video she describes this encounter and the consequences on the basis of symbolically inserted objects. The video was shown in the anteroom of the Erlauf inn “Mostlandl”. At the railroad crossing, the artist also installed props from the video: a chair (in the movie it says: “the seat of the lurking”) or trouser legs (“the subjects that were under surveillance”). On an accompanying leaflet the artist had printed a sailor song. It was sung in the video as a representative of the moment when the two generals met each other.
