(free admission)
In addition to a talk with art historian and critic Dr. Ann-Katrin Günzel (essay in the book), Angie Hiesl + Roland Kaiser and Michael Maurissens, moderated by cultural scientist and curator Kay von Keitz, the screening of a 20-minute film (on the 2024 project) by Michael Maurissens is on the program. Kettler Publishing House
In the moderated discussion, Angie Hiesl + Roland Kaiser look back on the creation of DRESSING THE CITY AND MY HEAD IS A SHIRT - from concept development to actual work on site and in interaction with the performers. Dr. Ann-Katrin Günzel (editor-in-chief of KUNSTFORUM International) explains the special features and aesthetic characteristics of site-specific performance and installation art. Roland Kaiser and Michael Maurissens will report on the photographic and filmic challenges of capturing the most bizarre and poetic moments of the performances on a public “stage” characterized by coincidences. An exchange with all visitors is very welcome!
Supported by the City of Cologne, the Ministry of Culture and Science NRW, the Diversity Fund NRW, the Kunststiftung NRW, and the Performing Arts Fund.
