Tulip Enterprises - Scripophily (light installation, 2 x 2 m)
Tulip Enterprises are a Berlin-based art collective “fighting artistic dysfunctionality a day at a time with inclusive art strategies by way of public art presentations and self-organized exhibitions.”
Scripophily refers to the former function of the Mica Moca building as a safe factory, It is inspired by the delirious ornamental language of bonds that is designed to give an aura of value, trust & uniqueness. The way art functions is curiously similar to the way bonds work: Inimitability of the object, and a nervous dependency on hearsay, trends, inside knowledge and specialists are deciding features of the art trade as well

From: Playground Berlin Weekend at Mica Moca site-specific installations & performances July 16 & 17 2011.
An international selection of artists was invited by Playground Berlin to conceive site specific work for the Mica Moca building, a former safe factory in Berlin Wedding. The presentation covers performances, installations, video-art and concerts. Curated by Marcela Donato & Kunstraum Richard Sorge. Thanks to Tiago Oudman.
Established in 2009, Playground Berlin is an international collective dedicated to independent art collaboration and presentation. Blurring generational, national, cultural and sexual boundaries, Playground Berlin’s projects offer a delirious convergence of visual art, music, mixed media installations and performances.
