Exhibition

act/ion. Recorded Performances

Thu, March 08 – Sun, April 29, 2012

Location
Media Lounge

Dance and performance are fleeting forms of artistic expression. They are situated in the moment of their performance emerging as perceptible to the audience and the participants at the moment of their execution. Through the recording of the moving pictures of film and video, dance and performance are given a performance-independent form, which make the live experience amenable to documentation and conservation, while at the same ideally transferring it into another, new art form.

To supplement the exhibition »Moments. A History of Performance in 10 Acts« at the ZKM | Museum of Contemporary Art running concurrently, the show at the ZKM_Medialounge seeks to present the intention and highly expressive medium of video, which makes the pioneer of performance art and dance visible.
