Event

Spring detours

Monday 8 June 2015 at 7 pm

For the past twenty years, Dora Garcia has been producing works on several levels, essentially by way of performances in public places (either followed or initiated on the Internet, and extended by books), which involve a group of partners and collaborators, and prompt discussion about the relationship with the spectator. Among many programmes devised by her, let us mention The Beggar’s Opera (Münster, 2007), a development and everyday adaptation of The Threepenny Opera; L’Inadeguado at the 2011 Venice Biennale, a series of encounters and events organized in the Spanish pavilion, with the figure and activities of the psychiatrist Franco Basaglia as her source of inspiration; and, most recently of all, Le Sinthome, a dance choreographed during the Venice Biennale, based on Lacan’s Joyce seminar. Since 2012, Dora Garcia has been jointly running Les Laboratoires d’Aubervilliers. It is understandable that the desire to erect a boundary between artistic activity and curatorial activity is especially inappropriate, and we shall be discussing the new “Printemps des Laboratories” (from 4 to 7 June) just as much recent topical events and projects in progress.
