Tania Pérez Córdova, Human, Nonhuman, Human, 2017

Performativity is the first chapter of a trilogy on the relationships between performance art and art objects. The exhibition aims at observing the fruitful interactions between two paradigmatically opposed practices. The first is based on time and the second on space. It focuses on the permutations which have been proposed by visual artists in recent years. It is completed by future appointments Performability and Performing. The first is dedicated to the performability of an artistic object and the second to its own ability to perform. Performativity focuses on performance sources of poetics aimed at widening the scope of our senses through the latent evocation of a body, a choreography, a narration or a behaviour. Focusing on the semantic expansion of the performance, Performativity shows, through an exhibition, what remains of a performative act in an object, be it accomplished or imaginary.

Collective Exhibition for a Single Body – The Private Score – Vienna 2019 ist eine performative Ausstellung. Die im Haus Wittgenstein gezeigten Arbeiten von Künstler*innen aus Mittel-, Ost- und Südosteuropa werden von Performer*innen in einem Supermarkt (re-)aktiviert. Das Projekt beruht auf einer Partitur, die von Pierre Bal-Blanc entwickelt und zum ersten Mal 2017 auf der documenta 14 in Athen und Kassel gezeigt wurde. The Private Score ist die zweite Version dieser Partitur, die auf Initiative der Kontakt Sammlung in Wien realisiert und mit Werken aus den Sammlungen der TBA21 und der Generali Foundation erweitert wird.

In der Wiener Version bezieht sich der Kurator auf künstlerische Gesten, die im osteuropäischen Sozialismus der 1960er- und 1970er-Jahre entstanden sind. Vertreten sind zudem Werke von Kunstschaffenden der 1989er-Generation, die das emanzipatorische Potenzial der Neoavantgarde reaktivierten. Die in den [...]

Only a few months after its official opening, Museo Patio Herreriano presented an ambitious exhibition entitled Cuatro dimensiones, a project that seeked to survey the developments in the field of sculpture taking the works in the Colección de Arte Contemporáneo as a point of departure. The works on show succeeded in portraying the vigorous way by which sculpture in Spain had reemerged after the sterile years of Conceptual art. Cuatro dimensiones put forward four perspectives around the medium of sculpture between 1978, the year in which Spain’s Constitution was officially signed, and 2003, when the exhibition took place. It included works by artists that flourished in our country in coincidence with the consolidation of democracy and also those by artists from successive generations that contributed to Spain’s assumption of the international artistic languages when the world was about to plunge into the global arena that defines our [...]
