MAHZEITEN


Empfehlung

One of my brilliant former students C. Maria Norrman from Malmo Art Akademy is doing a performance very soon. If you are in Sweden you owe yourself to see this fabulous artist in her element. Check out the info below:

Performance: Time Travel Entertainment: Millennium Star Lip Syncs For

Their Life* 2-3 November, 1-4 pm
Lorensborgsgatan 8, Malmö

<https://www.google.com/maps/search/Lorensborgsgatan+8,+Malm%C3%B6?entry=gmail&source=g>

*The performance takes place in and around an empty former hair salon in

Lorensborgs shopping center (look for the ICA Nära Stadionköp grocery

store, enter the shopping center, location is opposite the ICA)*

Fictional travel agency Time Travel opens the new temporary beauty salon

Beauty with a performance by Millennium Star. The beauty salon offers free

make-over and a relaxing trip in Virtual Reality.

Millennium Star is the artist Maria Norrman's drag character. At the

beauty salon Beauty, Millennium Star will perform selected songs in

different languages such as Farsi, Portuguese, German and English.

Millennium Star dresses in different styles for each song.

Time Travel and the beauty salon Beauty are part of the fictional

corporate group Worldtrotters ™, which is the world's best fictional VR

travel company group. Since 2018, they have offered fictional travel

experiences to hundreds of people in both Sweden, Finland, Norway, Denmark

and the Czech Republic.

The project is run by Gallery Extra with support from Bästa Biennalen, MKB

Fastighets AB and BoostHBG.

Maria Norrman works with video and photography, in combination with

performance and costume. The works explore the meeting between her and

other people's fantasies and conceptions on topics such as gender, war

history and sexuality. Norrman was born in 1987 and graduated from the

Malmö School of Art in 2013.

One of my delightful new students at Work Master HEAD in Geneva is involved in a very interesting project that riffs on the daytime chat show as performative art installation.  If you are in Berlin I recommend you check it out for yourself:

Dear friends,
I’m delighted to invite you to the new video installation “The Morning Show of Celine and Renana”.
Presented in the frame of “OPEN SPACES” festival at Tanzfabrik Berlin, this is a new season of the successful morning show, where Celine and Renana deal with daring and enthralling matters of art. In their show, the famous hosts from the showbiz industry invite choreographers, artists and cultural workers to give a glimpse into their working processess in order to understand the hidden meaning behind the sublime practice of art. 

When and where: 1st-10th November 2019 at Uferstudios, Badstr. 41a, Studio 13 
Viewing the installation is free of charge.
Episodes 3+4 of the new season will be shown in February 2020.


Although as their agent my part in the production is minimal, I hope to see you there, I'm sure you will enjoy!

All the best,

Renen
