NOMADIC: Performance Art & Territoriality

The International Network of Performance Art, INPA, in collaboration with the platform PAUSA, Performance Art USA presents NOMADIC : Performance Art & Territoriality at Longwood Art Gallery @ Hostos in the Bronx on Wednesday, September 20th, from 6:00 to 9:00 PM. The program features live performances and a selection of video performances from around the globe.

As the guiding curatorial principle of this year’s program, NOMADIC evokes the continuous displacement of performance artists around the globe and their migratory patterns to sustain their practice. NOMADIC also reflects on the corporeal challenges performance artists face as they move from one geographical space to another, and as they have to adapt to temporal shifts traveling from one time zone to another. Through various modalities of corporeal expressions found in Live Art, participating artists will address notions of migration, adaptation, territoriality, and exploration in relation to corporeal expression and changing geographies.

NOMADIC: Performance Art & Territoriality will feature performances by local, national, and international artists whose primary practice is Performance Art in its diverse manifestations. The program also includes a selection of video performances by artists from Asia, Africa, Latin America, and Europe. The program is curated independently by Hector Canonge.
