Performance and Pizza Club at Runostuoppi 29.3.

Performance and Pizza – performance art club at Runostuoppi

Saturday 29.3. from 17-20, followed by karaoke

Venue: Runostuoppi, Munterinkatu 15, Turku

Performance and Pizza is New Performance Turku Biennale’s new travelling performance art club, which will take place at different locations around Turku. The Performance and Pizza is an open invitation for everyone to get to know performance art and to encounter a potentially new art form in an approachable way, without compromising on high artistic quality.

The aim of the club is to find new friends in places where performance art may not have been seen before.

Four performance artists will perform at the Performance and Pizza performance art club. Alisa Alho is a young performance artist whose works insightfully examine social structures and challenge the boundaries of acceptability. Tomasz Szrama is a recognised artist in the domestic and international performance art scene. His work is characterised by participation and improvisation, which can even create unexpected situations for the artist himself. Roi Vaara is a pioneer of Finnish performance art and it is an honour to have him perform at the Performances and Pizza club. Vaara’s works are physical poems that are created for a specific time and situation. The evening will be hosted by Leena Kela, artistic director of the New Performance Turku Biennale and performance artist, who will also perform as part of the club’s programme.

Free pizza will be served between the performances and after the performances the evening will continue with karaoke.

The event is free of charge (pizza included).
