In her work Conversations about Work Caro Niederer returns to the medium of film for the first time in over ten years. The video was shot during a conversation over tea and coffee, which the artist held on the occasion of the Appenzeller Frauenaufzug an exhibition of works by women artists at the Armoury in Teufen AR. In it, Caro Niederer chats with eight other women about contemporary life plans and the challenges of everyday (working) life. Touching upon the topics of architecture, art, advertising and communication, she explores the question of how creativity comes about. The participants’ reflections on life and work pick up on Caro Niederer’s central theme of memory and the question of what remains on a personal level that is of any value. (provided by publisher)
