Conversations | Artist Talk | The Stage as Safe Space
Four artworld experts discuss gender, performance, and identity
In this conversation, artists Than Hussein Clark and Marvin Gaye Chetwynd discuss their Parcours Night performances 'Yes, Yes, All the News thats Fit to Print' - supported by MGM Resorts & Culture - and 'The Green Room & The Science Lab', with curator Samuel Leuenberger. Aspects of live performance and issues connecting gender, interior design, and what it means to be hidden versus revealed will be addressed. How do public and private spaces affect behavior and interactions? Is a performance still a performance if no one sees it? Where does the theater of our identities end and public personas begin? Watch the full talk here.
