Description
After Dammbeck’s original film project Herakles (Hercules) was rejected by the East German DEFA Studios in 1983-84, the artist was still fascinated by the Hercules story. He started experimenting with different media combinations, including overpainting, photography, film clips, collage, painting and movement. These experiments resulted in groundbreaking multi-media collaborations and in the film THE CAVE OF HERCULES, in which Dammbeck explores a series of questions inspired by the classical figure of Hercules. Who was the legendary hero? Is there a new Hercules today? How are heroes created in a totalitarian society? What are the virtues of heroes? This multi-layered experimental film combines projections of collected film clips; quotations from “The Willful Child,” by the Brothers Grimm, and “Hercules 2 or the Hydra,” by Heiner Müller; and dance scenes performed by Eva Schmale—at Kampnagel in Hamburg—only for this film. THE CAVE OF HERCULES is part of Dammbeck’s long-term project the Herakles-Konzept (Hercules Concept).
