Working practices in the performing arts are changing: Both artists and artistic institutions are searching for methods and formats that take care, inclusion and sustainability into account. This not only has an impact on how art is produced, but also on the resulting aesthetics. Disabled and chronically ill artists have found methods and formats that challenge the status quo, because their lived experiences and access needs made them pursue different pathways. The Swiss National Science Foundation SNSF research project “Aesthetics of the Im/mobile” (2022-2026) has been examining perspectives by institutional arts practitioners and disabled and chronically artists, as well as analysing formats that explore the im/mobility of art in different ways. In a 2-day symposium at the Bern Academy of the Arts HKB, in collaboration with the Swiss Association for Theatre Studies, we will put these perspectives into dialogue and explore art formats and practices in workshops and exhibitions. The symposium aims to connect research and arts practices and offers insights into the outcome of the research project.
Speakers and contributors: auawirleben Festival (CH), Kamran Behrouz (CH), Tanja Erhart (AT), Annemarie Hahn (CH), Alexandrina Hemsley (UK), Anouk Hoogendorn (CH/NL/UK),
