Mixmaster
August 2011
DADA Post, Berlin
In his exhibition Mixmaster at DADA Post, Anders Hellsten Nissen exposes the character of a common concrete mixer. The purpose is to mix the materials as the drum rotates. With each rotation, the lifted material drops back into the mixer at the bottom of the drum and the cycle starts again. The concrete mixer produces moving images which are translated into concrete stills - free of any symbolical association with reality, arguing that lines and colours are concrete by themselves.
