In the video (only in German) with the artist Maria Sewcz, the author and curator Maren Lübbke-Tidow talks about Michael Schmidt’s group of works “Waffenruhe“. Sewcz explains how her work “inter esse” was created at the same time in GDR Berlin and how, despite not knowing each other, they feel a strong kinship. She provides insight into the artist scene of the 1980s in the east of the city and tells what impression Michael Schmidt made on them when they first met.
