2023

27.02 / 03.03. Restshop #1 is the first iteration of a series workshops organised around the project Institute of Rest(s) @ Tanzquartier – special guest in the room: performance-artist, writer, facilitator Sabina Holzer.

Borrowing from existing gestural traditions of interruption, refusal and resistance spotted in the alleyways of our practices, the workshop will be based on a glossary-repertoire of REST PRACTICES, speculating on the socio-political stakes of specific senses and sensations of resting. We will: REST from the current economy of creativity and novelty / REST from performance (of the self) / REST from using language, and anything else for that matter as a conveyor of clarity, fluency and transparency / REST in indeterminacy  / REST in a text (a word, in a spell, in a library) / REST in the rests, the ruins, les invendus [the unsold / the leftovers] / REST in gestures, movements / REST in poetic non-action / REST between languages, in the shade of our shady (mother) tongues.

7. / 11.02. Poetry without Poets #1 – Choreo-Somatics of Resting Dissidence is a chapter, an annex, a fore room, a suffix, and a prefix all at once, to an Institute of Rest(s). With Paula Caspão, Cécile Tonizzo, Sabina Holzer, Ujjwal Kanishka Utkarsh, Quim Pujol, Joachim Hamou & mollusca productions.

Saturday 11.02 at 10.30, special guest Ari Ban will give a (free) workshop @ Tanzquartier: Queer Gossip / Overhearing
