Two events dealing with performance art, «Revolving Documents» and «Must or Not», will be documented and summarised in publications. 

«Revolving Documents-Narrations of Beginnings, Recent Methods and Cross-Mappings of Performance Art» is the publication accompanying the conference of the same name, which took place in summer 2022 as part of the exhibition BANG BANG at Museum Tinguely. 

«Must or Not | Focus Performance & Photography» sheds light on the relationship between live performance and its documentation using the example of photography. To this end, public settings were set up and used in the Kaskadenkondensator in 2020. Experiences of the present and thoughts of future visibility are intertwined.


BANG BANG - translocal hi:stories of performance art
8 June - 21 August 2022

BANG BANG - translocal hi:stories of performance art

Performance will be taking centre stage at Museum Tinguely all summer long. The show will focus on Swiss art, its stories, and their many interpreters, while at the same time laying on an exciting, international programme of happenings. From the spectacular to the scarcely perceptible, BANG BANG will give the incredibly rich history of performance art in Switzerland the attention it deserves.
