This man is a maniac. Michael Laub, whose first performance group was tellingly called Maniac Productions, has been creating pieces and installations ranging from extreme to minimalist since 1975. These include pig in hell, Total Masala Slammer, a 10-channel video portrait series that was on display in 21er Haus in Vienna. He also realised a project at Burgtheater Wien. Laub’s most recent work shown at ImPulsTanz was "Fassbinder, Faust and the Animists" in 2017. He presented himself as a cineaste then. Now, he lives out this passion, orchestrating no less than 200 films to generate a rhythmically sophisticated structure of scenes and quotes. Ecstatic. Stunning. And very humorous!
