Performative Talks – Exploring Interactive Modes With gruppe tag
Leipzig-based art collective gruppe tag makes community-based theatre on the intersection of 'socio' and 'culture', drawing on a collective making process. No fixed stage ideas or acting styles, but based on solidarity with makers, audiences and social backgrounds. Driven by the conviction that theatre can create worlds that move people.
gruppe tag
Kunstcollectief gruppe tag gevestigd in Leipzig maakt community-based theater. Op het snijvlak van ‘socio’ en ‘cultuur’ vanuit een collectief maakproces. Geen vastomlijnde regie-ideeën of acteerstijlen, maar vanuit solidariteit met makers, publiek en de maatschappelijke achtergronden. Vanuit de overtuiging dat theater werelden kan scheppen die mensen in beweging brengen.
Hoe positioneer je jezelf als maker naast je publiek, zodat zij meer centraal staan?
Welke rol kunnen sociaal geëngageerde (participatieve) kunst- en ontwerppraktijken spelen in de context van toenemende gentrificatie? Zijn vragen die gruppe tag zoal bezighouden.
How to position yourself next to your audience as a maker, so that they become more central? Which role can socially engaged (participatory) art and design practices play in the context of increasing gentrification? These are questions that gruppe tag give priority to.
Performative Talks – Exploring Interactive Modes
During the workshop, using the interactive methods developed by gruppe tag, you will learn how to engage with passersby in the street and how to hold performative conversations in public space. You will experiment with different conversation forms that move between the private and the public domain.
To continue learning how you can apply interventions in the public space, you are also invited to participate in the concluding intervention on Saturday 20 May. There, the experienced practices will be further brought together and activated through a happening in the public space, somewhere in the Lombok neighbourhood of Utrecht.
Tijdens deze workshop leer je, met de interactieve methodieken van gruppe tag, hoe met voorbijgangers op straat in contact te komen en performatieve gesprekken in de openbare ruimte te voeren. Je gaat experimenteren met verschillende gespreksvormen die zich bewegen tussen het private en publieke domein.
Om verder te leren hoe je interventies in de openbare ruimte kunt toepassen, word je uitgenodigd om ook deel te nemen aan de afsluitende interventie op zaterdag 20 mei. Waar de opgedane ervaringen verder worden samengebracht en geactiveerd middels een happening in de openbare ruimte ergens in de Utrechtse wijk Lombok.
