Peter Strickmann

I am an artist performing, installing and manipulating sounding activity in public and domestic environments. By making use of simple and sparse means I am generally aiming for a joint sounding- and listening-practice, oscillating between action and perception, focusing on the vibrant „Ding“ and its social, acoustic and theatrical feedback. While collaborating with various improvising musical groups or noise-makers and exhibiting in a variety of contexts I observe the potency of sound/soundmaking and the habits of listening in diverse routine- or extraordinary settings.

I studied Audiovisual Art / Sound Art and Public Art at Hochschule der Bildenden Künste Saar, Saarbrücken. I am performing solo and as a member of diverse freemusic-, noise- and performance-groups, currently with Narval, Marius Buck/Peter Strickmann, Spemakh and Planet Dance Ensemble. I used to organize events with the Neuer Saarbrücker Kunstverein and initiated the noisy-free-music concert series at Fasanerie SB. I founded the Schnarcharchiv (snore archive/ audio collection) and since 2021 I am running the miniature netlabel Klappkart.

Labels that published some of my solo-, duo- or group sounds on cassettes and vinyl are: Rayon (UK), meudiademorte (D), Stenze Quo (NL), SPAM (D), Ana Ott (D), econore (D), Dazy&Holy (D).

Places where I exhibited my work include: zeitraumexit Mannheim, Stadtgalerie Saarbrücken, Staatliche Kunsthalle Baden-Baden, FFT Forum Freies Theater Düsseldorf, Literaturarchiv Saar-Lor-Lux-Elsass, Kunstmuseum Stuttgart, Titanik Galleria Turku, Saarländische Galerie Berlin, Prima Kunst Kiel and Bundeskunsthalle Bonn, amomgst many others.

I am living in Berlin.
