An invitation to dive into the world of modern and contemporary artistic creation.
The Mudam Akademie offers an introduction to modern and contemporary art, showing how artists of the past and the present act as inventors of aesthetic universes, as well as catalysts and interpreters of major societal events.
In direct dialogue with Mudam’s wide-ranging exhibition programme, this lecture series demonstrates that the museum seeks to be an open space that remains attentive to the world’s transformations. Accessible to both, newcomers and more experienced audiences, the Mudam Akademie aims to make art history approachable for everyone.
The Mudam Akademie is organised in collaboration with the Ministry of National Education, Children and Youth.
This series is conceived and led by Fanny Weinquin.
Session 8 – Art as performance: bodies, gestures, activation
In dialogue with Perform, Inform, Transform
Since the 1960s, performance has become a normalised practice in the context of contemporary art. This session will revisit the foundations of performance, stemming from various movements (Fluxus, Body Art). We will also observe its current position in the institutional context, currently located somewhere between ritual, activation, dance, engagement and experimentation.
