A meeting of performance art installation, videologue, and intimate dance theatre
June 27, 28, 29 8pm
Presented at Farmlab
Isak Immanuel (SF), Yuko Kaseki (Berlin), Luigi Coppola (Torino)
music/sound: Theresa Wong (Berkeley), Kanoko Nishi (Oakland), Zachary Watkins (Santa Cruz)
With a question of "To" comes "From", between makes trace.
To whom to write a memory, to where to send, to go , to escape, to flee, to take flight
As an ongoing site/city specific work, "To" creates a series of theatrical tableaux taking apart and re-piecing the quotidian, bizarre, and fragile ways in which people meet, miss, mirror, glimpse, erase, and trace one another. The subtitle (Mario Rossi, Wúmíng Shì, John Doe, Erika Mustermann, Nanashi-Gonbee) is comprised of the names for unknown or unspecified persons in Italy, Taiwan, The United States, Germany and Japan - the countries of the artists own nationality, collaboration and domicile. Drawing from this thread, the immediacy of the body and the real and imagined distances to civic space are cross-referenced from artist to artist. Photography and video documents done in the context of each country's unique urban topography are interwoven to give concrete touchstones while movement engages the ephemeral ghostlike absences of people and place that linger outside a given picture frame. As a shared work, it traces the outlines of urban intimacy and the incomplete formations of portraiture.
