Art Topics Lecture:

Taking the Stage OVER

—— Annie Vigier & Franck Apertet (Les Gens d’Uterpan)



After presenting performance piece Caster in Shanghai( 7pm, 17/02, Bund 18, 3rd Floor), Annie Vigier& Franck Apertet (les gens d’Uterpan) will give a talk presenting their work and understanding of live based art.



Talk co-organized in collaboration with Taking the Stage OVER, one year ongoing exhibition related to live based art and Vision magazine as exclusive partner (www.takingthestage.org)



Artists Statement:



For several years now the work that we develop examines the norms that define dance and the live arts. Our involvement touches upon several points, by exploring, among other things, the limits of the human body and of representation. The work explores the various frameworks that condition the body and mind by re-inventing the methods of exposition, production and appearance in performance. By integrating the place occupied by spectators, programmers and institutions into these processes, this approach re-proportions the choreographic field and the position of the choreographer, and applies it outside the original context. At the centre of today's evolutions and possibilities, the projects that we propose confront the socio-political issues of our times.



Artists Bio:



Annie Vigier was born in 1965 and Franck Apertet in 1966. They live and work in Paris.

Annie Vigier & Franck Apertet (les gens d’Uterpan) examines the norms that define dance and the live arts. By appearing in different frameworks that reveal the action of the body, or by adapting to them, they provoke the conditions for a new reflection on the different methods of representation, production and interpretation of performance.

Their pieces have been presented at the Project Arts Centre Dublin (Ireland), the Tate Modern London and the Institute of Contemporary Arts London (United Kingdom), the Kunsthalle Basel (Switzerland), the VI Cali performance Festival (Colombia), the Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw (Poland), the Kunsthaus Graz-Museum Joanneum (Austria), the Berlin Biennale for contemporary art 2008 and 2010 (Germany), the Nam June Paik Art Center Seoul (Korea), White Box New York (USA) among other places…

艺术家自述:



长期以来,我们的作品主要以舞蹈艺术和现场艺术的标准为探讨主题,致力于探索身体的极限和身体的再表现。通过对行为艺术论述、创作和表现方法的创新定义,作品对各种影响身体和心灵的框架和因素进行了深入的探索。把观众、空间、程序人员和各种体系都融入艺术实践的过程之中,对编舞的领域和编舞者的定位进行了新的界定,拓展了原先的语境。当今世界充满了各种变化和可能性,我们的作品直面时代的各种社会议题。
