In the video installation TEN (2010), Niklas Goldbach stages a summit of today's rulers in the penthouse-suite of a luxury hotel in Berlin, in which he creates a tenfold image of himself as only actor. The film seems to have come out of a laboratory, from a mysterious, undiscovered time where future and present have merged. All individual aspects are removed, everything is subjected to the protocol of efficiency and the mute poker of power under the mask of equality. Dystopic aspects of civilised, postmodern lifestyles are densified in the places of Niklas Goldbachs video- and printworks. Tracks of model societies, social hierarchies, systems of control and power can be found everywhere.
