Another in a series of curated events examining contemporary performance art, what it has to say, how it is said & why. Three artists discuss & present their work in relation to timely thematics.

Event takes place on 2 April with:

Aliza Shvarts works with forms of reproductive labour, configured by philosophies of temporality. She's a PhD candidate in Performance Studies at NYU, where she writes on doom and extensity. Her work is situated in relation to an unresolved issue at the heart of performance history  and practice: the seeming irreconcilability between the event of performance and the iterability of performativity. Her work is at times theoretical and in other spaces physical. It is always performance.

Carlos Salazar Lermont was born in Caracas in the late 80's. He works in performance art and action derived works, developed by photography, video, installation and space interventions.  Educated in Fine Art: Sculpture at UNEARTE (2012) and receiving his Baccalaureate in Fine Art: Drawing and Painting from the Escuela de Artes Visuales Cristobal Rojas (2005). Carlos has been exhibiting professionally since 2005. 

Liberate Tate is a network dedicated to taking creative disobedience against Tate until it drops its oil company funding.

The Network was founded during a workshop in January 2010 on art and activism, commissioned by Tate.

When Tate curators tried to censor the workshop from making interventions against Tate sponsors, even though none had been planned, incensed participants decided to continue their work together beyond the workshop and set up Liberate Tate.
