  • YAMA KOWA the Multimedia Artist Was Born Into the World of Art, As The
    YAMA KOWA The multimedia artist was born into the world of art, as the daughter of the curator and art historian Wieland Schmied. Seeking distance and identity, she initially focused primarily on theater acting and found her true love in live art performance. She founded ACT.ART.OUT. performance theater in 2013 and is focusing fully on life-art ever since. Painting, video, collage or installations are only appearing as elements of her performative work. A speciality of her artistic practise is the work in performance cycles. So she brings the spontaneous and ephemere of live art performance in alignment with a kontinuity in time that might examine a topic over a dozen years or longer, and since the six weeks ongoing durational 2018 she developed an almost addictive preference to this sort of excessively meditative encounters.

  • Reading, Because of Love by Andrea Pagnes (Vestandpage) This
    Reading, Because of Love By Andrea Pagnes (VestAndPage) This is not exactly a book review, but my humble thoughts skewed one after the other— a visceral empathic response to Franko’s life story, one of the artists who most inspired my journey through art. When someone tells you of his/her life, exposing his/her heart, every moment assumes its importance, even the most apparently banal. As we get to know a person better, there is a natural process that acts on our affective sphere. It is a mechanism mostly responsible for building friendship and respect. At least metaphorically, it can be said that the people we know and value inhabit a part of our brain. We have a copy of them stored in our memory: not an exact reproduction but series of images valid enough to stimulate our intellect and emotional intelligence. Some books offer very concentrated social information. They are to our social interests like fresh water is to the part of our brain when we are thirsty. For readers who are concerned with anything that has social and causal implications, those books are there to satisfy these interests. They stimulate reflection. Not all books, of course, but above all good essays and novels, and those with the focus on a single character, biographies and autobiographies. I always feel a certain fascination when an author of a book unlocks the doors of his/her world through an uncompromised way of writing. It is like receiving an open invitation to enter inside a place once kept secret and share what is there to be found, and so to imagine, mirror, recognise.

  • Spaced, Art out of Place
    Page 97 / June 2014 SPACED, ART OUT OF PLACE The experiences of the Free University of Liverpool and the CyberMohalla project as examples of alternative education Andrea Pagnes (VestAndPage) Don’t think they prefer the drudgery of the desk and the slavery to their circulation and to the business manager to the joy of writing. They have tried to write, and they have failed. And right there is the cursed paradox of it.1 ( Jack London, 1909) Preamble In the decades of the 1980s and the 1990s, alienation was described as a cognitive space overcharged with nervous and conditioning incentives to act, frequently de- riving from external forces to select and exclude individuals who fail to meet often badly regulated specific requirements. The dramatic economical crisis of the recent years has contributed to making individual and household debt a post post-modern form of slavery, due to the toxic effects of unscrupulous financial policies. Within this context, higher education has also become an issue linked almost exclusively to the economic status of the student and his/her family, or his/her pos- sibility of contracting a considerable loan at a certain interest to be able to complete his/her studies. This has created a form of non-meritocratic selection and unjust exclusion, evidencing another discrepancy in the idea of globalization, whose great promise now lies in ruins. The relentless pressure of production aimed at satisfy- ing the constrictive logic of the capitalistic markets and their financial oligarchies, weakening the individual’s will and his/her decision-making capacity to act dif- ferently, paints the picture of a dystopian future.

  • The 1St VENICE INTERNATIONAL PERFORMANCE ART WEEK Hybrid Body
    The 1st VENICE INTERNATIONAL PERFORMANCE ART WEEK Hybrid Body - Poetic Body Palazzo Bembo, Riva del Carbon, San Marco 4793, Venice (Italy) 08 - 15 December 2012 The first Venice International Performance Art Week, under the title “Hybrid Body-Poetic Body”, will take place in Venice from December 8th to December 15th, 2012, showcasing works by 31 international artists. Pioneers alongside established and emerging ones will trace an itinerary of still vivid past influences and current tendencies in the field. Consisting of a dynamic program of live performances, installations, photographic and video documentation, daily artist talks, and meetings with the participating artists, researchers and curators, the event focuses on concepts such as authenticity, interconnectivity, empathy, struggle, love, political and social habits, and how the Self relates to them. The purpose is also educational. The first Venice International Performance Art Week is in fact conceived as a long-term project, aiming to promote series of workshops and seminars on Performance art issues along the year on international scale, in cooperation with other cultural institutions of the city, such as the Academy of Fine Arts. Two-way communication between artists and audience is the key for this discipline, for proposing experience and investigate cutting edge ideas in different branches of the human activity. Performance art is life itself, it doesn’t represent or portray. It rather analyses how and why people and their surroundings evolve or devolve, to generate reflection. Because it is ephemeral and because the artist’s own body is the primary medium, Performance art holds an unquestionable vital potential: it steps beyond conventional borders to create an immediate impact by engaging directly the viewer emotionally and intellectually.

    W //BUZZCUT// 2016 W W W W W WWW WWWWW WELCOME!!! Hello you wonderful person! It’s such a thrill to be welcoming you to our fifth festival - We can hardly believe it’s here! If you’ve been with us since the beginning, or you’re experiencing BUZZCUT for the first time, THANK YOU for coming - this wouldn’t be happening without you, and this is definitely FOR you. And you are for IT! When putting together the festival we ask ourselves, how can we create an environment that reflects the way we would like society to be? How do we welcome and look after the most vulnerable? How do we celebrate diversity, rebellion and risk so that our lives can be expanded, enriched and nourished? How can we find a system that deals with money and payment and value more fairly? How many ways are there to share what we’ve got? How do we let people know they are welcome to come in and get involved? How do we place creativity and generosity at the centre? How can an event strengthen a community? We don’t believe we will ever fully answer these questions, but we’re invested in an ongoing process that strives towards the answers. BUZZCUT is an experiment, a party, a festival, a community, a celebration. Some exciting extra events that are part of the festival this year include SIDEBURNS Symposium (info on page 14) on Wednesday 6th April, a chance to hear some brilliant provocations from a range of artists and academics to open up our inquiring minds ahead of the live performance programme.
