June 13, 19h, Postspectacle presentation at Scena9 Gallery Bucharest.
In
the beginning Postspectacle was a reaction, a vague intention to alter,
expand or break some of the implicit conditions, to escape the general
atmosphere, a desire to move away from the spectacle. It started from
the questions: How to perform in a society of spectacle? And why? What’s
the point of adding another spectacle to the artworld when we are
living in a generalized spectacle? Postspectacle doesn't really have an
answer, but by dealing with these questions some practices emerged. One
is to dislocate the performance and bring the "outside spectacle" to art
spaces. For instance, Postspectacle invited the Romanian Army to host a
dance workshop and perform a drill show in a contemporary dance venue. A
reversed operation is to infiltrate the big stages of mass media,
business and politics with the skills, knowledge and approaches from
performance. The Presidential Candidate is one of the results of this
operation.
