Ad hoc Re-Performance (NZ)
Archived Event
Four local artists were invited to provide Anna Berndtson with instructions to a performance of theirs. Each hour a new performance score, unknown to Anna, is read and similar items, originally used by the artists, is handed over to her. She used different costumes that had been brought and the means at hand in the space. She reperformed these pieces momentarily, provisionally, and ad hoc. Using the original works of: Forest Vicky Kapo, Elliot Vaughan, Josie Archer and Kosta Robert Bogoievski, Alexa Wilson. Curated by Sara Cowdell. Assistance from Louie Neale. Supported by IASPIS, The Swedish Arts Grants Committee’s International Programme for Visual Artists. Presented at: play_station, Wellington, New Zealand Additionally Anna also ran a performance workshop, you can read a participants reflection on our blog linked below.
Pawa runs on the contributions of our event goers and public funding.
We believe performance art should be assible to everyone, thats why majority of our shows are open to the public, however if you have funds to spare please consider contributing.
