St. Mickeyland

Ulu Braun

Welcome to St. Mickeyland! In painting-like tableaus, a reservation inhabited by cartoon and media icons is displayed. The assembled characters are in search of meaning in life, reflecting on their creation in the honeypot of capital. While Snow White learns stand-up paddling, Winnie the Pooh gives birth to a descendant, adding a dash of humanity to the fictional shell.

Ulu Braun (1976, Germany) works and lives in Berlin and Finland. Between 1996 – 2005 he studied painting and film at Universities in Vienna, Helsinki and Potsdam. He is one of the key figures who have transferred painting into video art and have played a significant role in defining and further developing the genre of video collage.
