Applications of artists from all disciplines and levels of experience are now being accepted on a rolling base.
In this Introductory Performance Art Workshop, you will work together practically for four days with artist duo VestAndPage in their collaborative, body-based practice. This workshop has a focus on the use of the three bodies (physical, mental and spiritual) as primary artistic tools. This means focusing on the human body as a poetic and imaginary landscape, being at the same time subject and object of artistic creation, as well as expanding to the social and the political. The process of physical exercises offers insight into VestAndPage's process-led performance art practice to unveil universal meanings through a "Poetic of Relations". This involves a relational perception of issues such as the Self, Otherness, Memory Activation, and Personal Experience. VestAndPage will work on a range of techniques, methods and approaches, which reflect their artistic practices and backgrounds along the interface of visual arts, performance art, philosophy, creative and theoretical writing, as well as Social, experimental and oriental theatre, movement practices and martial arts.
German artist Verena Stenke and Venetian artist and writer Andrea Pagnes have been working together since 2006 as VestAndPage and gained international recognition in the fields of performance art, performance-based film, writing, publishing and with temporary artistic community projects. They are the independent force behind projects such as the Venice International Performance Art Week, have performed and produced numerous live and film works, and offer introductory performance workshops, intensive classes and co-creation processes in art institutions and organisations all over the world. | www.vest-and-page.de
