Nahezu zwei Jahre hat Zhou Tao in der W\u00fcste Gobi verbracht, um die Obsession des modernen Men- schen, W\u00fcsten in Lebensraum zu verwandeln, in Bildern einzufangen. Das Ergebnis ist ein facettenreiches Repertoire an schnell wechselnden Bildern: Sandst\u00fcrme, Staubwolken, sich \u00e4n- dernde Jahreszeiten, Portr\u00e4ts von Menschen, Pflanzen und Tieren, die gemeinsam in fl\u00fcchtigen \u00d6kosystemen leben, zur\u00fcckgelassen als \u00dcberreste industrieller Eingriffe. Doch auch in diesem Ausnahmezustand wird die Erhabenheit der Natur durch menschliche Spuren belastet: Wind schl\u00e4gt durch Pappelb\u00e4ume, wirbelnder Sand schleift die Oberfl\u00e4chen riesiger Metallblumen, die verloren in der W\u00fcste liegen \u2013 \u00fcppige rote Knospen, die achtlos zur\u00fcckgelassen wurden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Zhou Taos Filmkunst erinnert an die \u00c4sthetik des <em>liubai<\/em> der chinesischen <em>Literati.<\/em> In der <em>Literati-<\/em>Malerei der S\u00fcdlichen Schule wird ein Gef\u00fchl von Raum dadurch erzeugt, dass etwa Landschaften jeweils nur eine Ecke oder Seite eines Gem\u00e4ldes f\u00fcllen, w\u00e4hrend weite Teile der Bildfl\u00e4che leer gelassen werden. In der Zeit der mongolischen Yuan -Dynastie, als sich viele chinesische Gelehrte aus dem Staatsdienst zur\u00fcckziehen mussten, kamen die <em>Literati<\/em> h\u00e4ufig zusammen, um ihre Ideale zu kultivieren und ihre Weltsicht in Gem\u00e4lden zum Ausdruck zu bringen. In der Malerei ging es nun nicht mehr um die Beschreibung der sichtbaren Welt. Die Kunstschaffenden versuchten, mit Hilfe der Malerei ihren Empfindungen, Gedanken und Gef\u00fchlen, ihren inneren Landschaften Ausdruck zu verleihen. Zhou Tao verwandelt in \u00e4hnlicher Weise innere Stimmungen und Empfindungen in Bilder, allerdings teilt er nicht die eskapistische Haltung der <em>Literati.<\/em> F\u00fcr ihn ist der Akt des Filmemachens ein Weg, sich mit Realit\u00e4ten auseinanderzusetzen, die durch die Technik massiv ver\u00e4ndert wurden. Es geht ihm darum, direkte Verbindungen zu schaffen, und unsere K\u00f6rper mit Hilfe der Kamera unmittelbar mit der Welt kurzzuschlie\u00dfen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div

<\/em>(Syn\u00e4sthesie) bezeichnet wird, als<em> Fluss der Empfindungen. <\/em>Zhou Tao entwirft in seiner dokumentarischen Assemblage eine Utopie aus K\u00f6rpern und Bildern &#8230; \u201eprojected as the senses swap places, lights doing double duty for sounds and then vice versa &#8230; whose pense\u00e9 sauvage, divested of abstractions, must use each singular perception to express the other, then appropriating the other in order to return on itself to shore up its own existence as representation.\u201c\u00b9<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Was der narrative Apparat nicht erfassen kann, sind die Komplexit\u00e4t und Ambiguit\u00e4t der Schaupl\u00e4tze: der Horizont, der sich in den Augen einer Schildkr\u00f6te spiegelt, eine Stra\u00dfen\u00fcberf\u00fchrung aus Beton als Raum f\u00fcr Freizeitaktivit\u00e4ten, \u00f6kologische Enklaven in einem Tagebau, die au\u00dferirdisch anmutende Kuppel eines urbanen Theaters, das idyllische Lied eines besetzten Platzes, ein Wasserreservoir, das zu Sand zerf\u00e4llt, das Kind, die Pflanze, die Kuh, die Ziege, das Huhn und der Hund, die mit verrosteten Maschinen zusammenleben &#8230; In eben solchen Allegorien der Topographie versucht Zhou Tao, das organische Verschmelzen von Mensch, Maschine und Umwelt zu verdichten, um \u00fcber planetare Realit\u00e4ten zu sprechen, die mit lokalen Details und pers\u00f6nlichen Erinnerungen kontaminiert sind, und um es jenen Partikularit\u00e4ten zu erm\u00f6glichen, ihre Wirkung im universellen filmischen Raum zu entfalten.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00b9 Frederic Jameson,&nbsp;<em>Archaeologies
