Diverting the Public Space #2 @ Im_Flieger

Next week, 27th of June and 1st of July we will be back at Im_Flieger to continue our ongoing urban space performative intervention research "Diverting the Public Space" - this time Dutch artist, performer and theater maker Guus Diepenmaat will join our practice. You can attend our activities in a workshop / sharing on both Wednesday and Friday at 18h. More information here.

"The research in public space, which began in the summer of 2021, will continue in 2022. The current Corona pandemic has, among other things, changed and sensitized the perception of public space. The project Diverting the Public Space aims to accompany this transformation in a performative exploratory and supportive way. In Vienna, the Im_flieger runway serves as the starting point for the research.

Through a spectrum of shared physical practices in public space, Diverting the Public Space aims to explore new modes of action and perception, leading to a self-empowerment of the participants and an invitation to dialogue and engagement with passers-by. Together, old patterns of movement in public space will be questioned and a new playful yet critical physicality will be explored. The developed and guided partitions / scores shall give the possibility to deeply inscribe into the public space in a different way and to practice and experience a choreographic perception. The space, transformed into a multifaceted adventure playground (for young and old), is intended to open utopian windows of possibility for a different „merging“ with our human-made, urban environment and the questioning of its norms."
