A conversation on the institution as a performance
featuring Annie Fletcher (Van Abbemuseum)
- 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.
- Annie Fletcher
- Chief Curator at the Vanabbemuseum in Eindhoven. In 2005, together with Frederique Bergholtz and Tanja Elstgeest, she created the platform If I Can’t Dance, I Don’t Want To Be Part of Your Revolution. The platform combines visual art with performance art: theatre, music and dance, as well as develops the discourses related to them.
