June 14 & 15 8 pm Kaserne Basel After all, things will never be the same again, so let's make history. On a not particularly special day, in a not particularly special place Gob Squad will save the world before it ends. From sunrise to sunset, they will try to get everything they can onto a very very wide screen film. It’s a Noah´s Ark for the 21st Century. In Saving The World, Gob Squad squeezes the world into a handful of videotapes. Produced in 24 hours, a seven camera panoramic film portrays Basel’s Claraplatz, (a square located a short walk from Scope), as a microcosm of the entire world. Starting with 'saving' the sunrise, Gob Squad soon moves on to 'saving' the essentials of life on earth such as money, freedom, ice cream and love. Gob Squad is a group of UK and German artists, working collectively with performance, theater, installation and video since 1994. Based in Nottingham and Berlin the group makes and presents its work in urban sites such as offices, houses, shops, railway stations and hotels as well as in galleries and theaters.
