Syndicate: Inserts - Dora Garcia |
aleph is pleased to announce the launch of INSERTS IN REAL TIME, by Dora Garc?a "Inserts in Real Time" is a project unfolding as a series of "real" interventions in "real" time by means of performances, carried out by actors following the instructions of Dora Garc?a. These performances will take place in different venues throughout the year 2001, within the context of different festivals and/or exhibitions ("Festival a/d Werf"- Utrecht, "Stromereien"- Zurich, "Marres"- Maastricht, "La Gallera"- Valencia, "La Caixa" - Barcelona) Each of the projects-performances has its own time development, from a few minutes (The Locked Room) to several hours (The Notebook, Proxy) and even to months (The Black Veil, The Circle, Coma), or, potentially, forever (All The Stories). Because of this temporal extension, nobody (not even the artists, sometimes not even the performers) can witness the performances in their totality. Therefore a very important part of the "Inserts in Real Time" project is the distribution of information about the project (which is done through the net). Each performance, or "insert", is completed by a "Diary", consisting of notes, reflections, documentation, photographs, QT movies, and real diaries written by the artist or the performers, and sent by means of e-mails to the site every day that a performance takes place. This means that each insert exist both as action and as narration. All this information can be visited in the website "Inserts in Real Time" http://aleph-arts.org/inserts/ Aleph has created as well a distribution/subscription list offering you the possibility of receiving directly in your mailbox the messages constructing the diaries. http://aleph-arts.org/inserts/subscribe/ This means that you can easily follow the development of the performances, being part of a parallel audience to the project, an audience slightly "shifted" from the real time audience directly witnessing the performances. "Inserts in Real Time" consists of 10 projects, three of them being performed right now ("Proxy", "The Glass Wall", and "Crowd", this last project made in collaboration with the American choreographer David Hernandez). A fourth insert is being launched these days: All The Stories. In "All The Stories", public and performer are one and the same person. This means that every visitor of the site http://aleph-arts.org/inserts/allthestories/ is a potential performer of the insert. If you subscribe to "Inserts?", then you will be a potential performer? forever, if you wish. Check it out.
