Info : The Performa Projects provide an acclaimed group of artists, curators, and institutions an exciting platform to produce and present new work.
The Biennial Consortium is a selective network of New York City’s arts and cultural institutions, all presenting and supporting performances and exhibitions that align with the Performa 13 biennial. These series of partnerships and co-presentations highlight the myriad of art and cultural events that make this particular point in time one of the most exciting in the city. The Consortium celebrates the creative history of the city and its legacy of radical performance that, since the 1950s and 60s, has brought together artists of all disciplines and made New York the center of the international avant-garde.
The Performa Institute provides a platform for the research and educational components of the biennial. At the Hub during the biennial, the Performa Institute will create a space for the research, exploration, and presentation of ideas with a focus on the study of art history and forging a new intellectual culture around contemporary performance.
The Institute asks Performa 13 artists, as well as curators and writers, to function as educators across disciplines, from exhibition-making, to historical research, to visions for the future of art and ideas in New York City and around the world. Within the context of the Performa 13 biennial, they will explore historical and research themes includingCitizenship, The Voice, and Surrealism. The Performa Institute is organized by Adrienne Edwards, Associate Curator.
