Teenage Kicks - A Crash Course in Performance Art
TUESDAYS

WEEK 3 - IDENTITY POLITICS (or – you are an activist)
What do we mean by identity politics? How and why are they used to make art?
What is live art? Why do some people use their bodies to make it? What is the difference between art and real life? Does art matter? Do our bodies matter? Who controls them? What would you die for?
Blurring the boundaries between art, theatre, music, film, dance and politics, live art and performance can disrupt and disturb the everyday.
For those times when it’s hard to give voice to complex ideas around our bodies, our feelings, belief, identity, live art can communicate where sometimes words fail us.
This crash course is for people aged 16 – 19. Looking at what live art and performance are, how they evolved and what they can do, each session will explore significant works from the field and their politics, before physical group exercises across the second half of each evening.
This is for misfits, loud mouths, oddballs, or wannabe artists. There are no auditions, you already have all the skills you need to be passionate and give a damn about the world – we can help with the rest.
