Celine Berger @ Division of Labour

In her first solo exhibition in London, Futures, Céline Berger presents new works including a special preview of her new film; BALLADE, video work, HD, Stereo, 23min (preview / work in progress)
A barren landscape, the wind blows. Three protagonists hike across the plateau, in conversation with one another. They recount specific issues from their professional lives as Project Leader, Personnel Officer, and Managing Director. Banal words of regret and apprehension, trivial dreams of a better future, which, displaced in an arid landscape, resonate in a peculiar way. With a script based on coaching dialogues recorded in various business schools, BALLADE questions the rhetoric and narrative strategies of business coaching.
