Rainer Görß has been working in Berlin-Mitte since 1980. He studied sculpture, scenography and painting in Berlin and Dresden. Since the 1980s, his work has included artistic research, performances, installations and drawings as part of the Autoperforationsartisten. Together with Ania Rudolph (studied design and art), they both run the U144 underground museum in Linienstraße in the form of an art and wonder chamber or “walk-in search engine”. The underground museum was created from 1990 onwards from participatory collection finds and operational liquidation actions of the East-West transformation.
U144 consists of nine themed rooms that artistically explore the developmental time-spaces of industrial society as a walk-in narrative. The story leads from the transformations of the upheavals and upheavals of the 1990s to the social and ecological questions of the future that were acute in the 2020s in the context of the global war. In the field of remembrance culture, the duo has realized art in buildings and urban spaces (including “Denkzeichen Hausvogteiplatz” on the Aryanization of the Jewish fashion industry & “Leitsystem Informant”, Stasigelände Lichtenberg)
Rainer and Ania offer a walk through the neighbourhood as part of DIFFRACTIONS—Collecting & Un/Learning.
