2 days
“Processing”, Architectural Association Interprofessional Studio London
“Ithaca: upon every arrival”, GesamtAtelier
In this event we wish to demonstrate the power of Spatial Performance drawn from diverse merge of traditional disciplines: architecture, choreography, sound design, sculpture, video art, theatre. We invite the Athenian audience to wonder in the open fields of art, offsetting the formal conventions of the sphere. New tools of expression are introduced and explored, ones that offer creatives from all around the globe to define their frame of work, whether it has one or multiple identities. We aspire to underline the great contribution of Spatial Performance as a solid yet versatile stage for The Other, where we can let go of prejudges acclamations and anticipating an unknown residue.
