Perspectives on performance 

CC har initieret et talk- og debatprogram under titlen ’Perspectives on performance’. Gennem debatter, performances og foredrag undersøger CC samtidens performancekunst og dens stigende popularitet hos publikum og kunstinstitutionerne. CC ønsker at udforske, hvilke nye udtryksformer live performance rummer, og hvilke udfordringer den uhåndgribelige kunstform bringer i forbindelse med udstillinger, indkøb, samlinger, formidling og publikum.  

Perspectives on Performance er støttet af Statens Kunstfond.

Perspectives on performance 

CC initiated a talk and debating programme, ‘Perspectives on performance’,which, via debates, performances, and talks, examines contemporary performance art and its growing popularity with audiences and art institutions alike. This is where the new forms of expression contained in live performance are explored and the challenges of this intangible art form are addressed in connection with exhibitions, acquisitions, collections, education, and audiences.
