'This is not a Magritte performance' #Ed.2

  • Diane Giraud

IN LIMEN was commisionned by PADA Studios to create a site specific performance for the opening of ‘O Que Não Temos Podemos Criar’*, a collective exhibition that brought together ten national and international artists showing within the largest former industrial park of Portugal in Barreiro. *'What we don't have, we can create' For this performance titled ‘This is not a Magritte performance’, the audience was drawn in by means of a playful protocole and a sound installation involving live singers performing improvisational, acoustic explorations. The composition reflected on the juxtaposition of contemporary art within this specific site in an attempt to condense time periods. The performance engages the audience and opens a dialogue about the experience and the site, its relevance for today and possibly the future. IN LIMEN is a cultural organisation co-founded in 2019 by sister and brother Diane Giraud and Pierre Giraud. IN LIMEN curates site-specific and cross-disciplinary Art Rituals used to leverage meaningful interactions between the audience members. IN LIMEN experiences are structured around 2 Acts woven seamlessly into each other: Act I Immersive art experience Act II Conversation.
