Participative Performance | Rirkrit Tiravanija: DAS GLÜCK IST NICHT IMMER LUSTIG

demo station: Jam Exchange

With Djamal Sultansei, Laura Böwing, Felix Schürhoff and Luana Thor

Music and dance are combined in a jam session. The musicians play freely while the dancers visualise the music. The aim is to create something spontaneous together in the moment, which slowly develops and binds artists and spectators together for the moment. The event takes place on a demo station by Rirkrit Tiravanija. The stage-like sculpture invites people to “demonstrate” something. Tiravanija plays with the different meanings of the term “demonstration” as both a political protest and a presentation of someone’s talent or hobby. For the duration of the exhibition, the demo station provides a space for daily public performances.
