Apply Now: PAS - Performance Art Studies in Berlin

IN CONTEXT is a new study format of PAS. For the seconad time PAS is invited by Enrico Centonze to the Grimmuseum in Berlin. In July 2010 we had a successful PAStudies with the topic EXTENSION as part of the performance art program at the Grimmuseum, curated by Andres Galeano.

The first IN CONTEXT edition will focus performance art in context of the museum. To live and to work in the Grimmuseum is one aspect of the studies. PAS IN CONTEXT will ask specific questions about the context of performance art in relation with the museum. Performance art is often recognized as an ephermal art form. How we are able to place our works into the context of a museum? Or how we can use the specific directions of a museum for the creation of our works? With this discourse we want to take part in the running discussions about documentation and preserving the relics of performance art pieces. The aim of this 12 days studies is to work out a performance and to present this as part of the final presentation in one museum in Berlin and as well in the Grimmuseum.

We are happy to announce that the well known artist and teacher Antoni Karwowski (PL) and the art historian and teacher Johannes Lothar Schröder (GER) will be working with us this time. They both and Essi Kausalainen (FIN), Danka Milewska (PL) and Ingolf Keiner (GER) will introduce their work and take part as visiting lecturers in PAS #20.
