Reading Henri Lefebvre's Rhythm Analysis
with artist Maria Pask at 23 Assemblies exhibition
- Meeting in Polish with artist Maria Pask at 23 Assemblies exhibition by Maja Bekan as part of open Performance Class.
- Performance Class is a situation constructed in frames of Maja Bekan’s 23 Assemblies. It is grounded in Bekan’s installation – an actual artists’ studio at the exhibition, and developing through activities of a group of artists working to create a proposal of a new sculpture on Oleandry Square in Warsaw. This is also a space to meet other artists and curators and listen / talk about their methods and experience of the relationship between artist – institution – social actors. This situation explores learning within – through – from art, as a way to model collective imagination.
