Valie Export, Who Made Art With Her Naked Body, Dies at 85

In provocative performance pieces and films, she forced viewers to confront misogyny in the media and society at large.

The New York Times

Speak through me,
Lunatics and heretics of my ancestry
Speak through me,
Lovers of barefoot wilderness and running away
Speak through me,
Feral fawn raised in dirt-floor cabin tamed once yet wild as your garden,
Sheep tenders and agents of death,
Those who fled on ships to immigrant shores
Speak through me with dripping black pitch and the breaking of bread
Of all you've seen, and all you know now

The artist’s Austrian Pavilion, which features a performer ringing a bell with her body and another immersed in the audience’s own urine, is the talk of the biennale. Why is she so surprised by people’s reaction?

Sun Xa Experiment: Redefining Sound, Spirit, and Soweto Creative Identity

Soweto has always been a place of innovation — a community where music, fashion, art, and social consciousness blend into something powerful. Among the creative voices emerging from this landscape is Sun Xa Experiment, a dynamic musical collective shaping a unique path in contemporary African sound and performance. More than just a band, Sun Xa Experiment represents a creative philosophy. Their work combines experimental music, spiritual expression, and bold visual storytelling, forming an […]

Opening tonight at Restless Artists Theatre Company!
The family dynamic is thrown into a tailspin when the matriarch is no longer herself. “Last Lists of My Mad Mother” is a dark comedy that examines a family whose mother needs care, and the two daughters who take very different approaches to helping their mother.

Один из самых известных перформансов — «Щупайте-и-трогайте-кино», премьера которого состоялась в день проведения малоизвестной кинопремии «Мараисиада» (Maraisiade) в Вене 11 ноября 1968 года. На видео было записано второе или третье исполнение перформанса, тоже во время какого-то небольшого европ. киноивента.

Warm Bad - Pink Edition

Toekomstmuziek, Monday, June 1 at 08:00 PM GMT+2

Warm Bad is back on 1st of June!🍄🍄🍄

The best Monday night dance party on improvised live music in town 🦃

At Toekomstmuziek, Doors open at 20h, tickets at the door 🥭

When: Monday 1st of June 2026
Where: @toekomstmuziek.venue

Warm Bad is a party for artists and art-lovers, a space where you can dress and move however you want. We aim to make you dance with an open live music jam. This session has two rules to make sure the egos can’t inflate too much: 1 no songs 2 make it danceable. The houseband will be the backbone of the jam and make plenty of space for other musicians to join in or take over. The jams will be interwoven with interlude performances to reset the mood of the improvisation.

You can draw inspiration for your outfit, musical input and dance moves from the theme for this month’s edition.
