#blacktivist

Visual artist and filmmaker Mario Pfeifer's (*1981, Dresden / Germany) films explore representational structures and conventions in the medium of film and video, in locations ranging from Mumbai to New York, from Brazil to the Atacama dessert, from Tierra del Fuego to East-Germany to the Western Sahara. He conceives each project out of a specific cultural situation, researches social-political backgrounds and weaves cross-cultural art historical, filmic, technological and political references into a richly layered practice. Mario studied visual arts at the academies of Leipzig, Berlin and Frankfurt as well as film at the California Institute of the Arts. Pfeifer is represented by KOW, Berlin and founder of blackboardfilms.
