Review of Gisele Vienne Retrospective in Berlin | Berlin Art Link
Briefly

Gisèle Vienne's dolls stare impassively, embodying silent anguish that invites viewers to interpret their muted expressions and unsettling presence at her retrospective.
The dance performance 'Crowd' simulates a '90s rave, blending synchronized movements and emotional extremes, revealing a tension between automation and genuine vulnerability.
In this performance, communication relies on facial expressions and bodily movements, where the loud techno soundtrack amplifies a sense of fear and elation without spoken words.
Vienne’s work highlights a persistent undercurrent of threat and suspense that complicates the atmosphere of a rave, moving beyond mere nostalgia for a lost utopia.
