Description
Performative Practices: From Experience to Expression
This course approaches performance as a mode of artistic research and an experimental practice. It explores how experiences, observations, and individual questions can be translated into performative forms of expression—and how artistic expression, in turn, generates new experiences and insights. Performance is understood as the creation of situations, relationships, and actions.Methodologically, the course is informed by Dwight Conquergood's three perspectives on Performance Studies: Accomplishment (knowledge through doing), Analysis (knowledge through observation and reflection), and Application (knowledge in practice). These three dimensions provide the framework for the development of students' own artistic projects.Each session begins with a shared foundational training focusing on body, voice, presence, and perception. Building on this, current performative research projects are introduced and discussed before students develop their own research questions and artistic concepts. Regular feedback sessions accompany the process from the initial idea through to its realization.Final projects may take the form of solo or group performances, performative interventions, installations, participatory works, lecture performances, workshops, or—where appropriate to the research question—theoretical or essayistic contributions. The course aims to support students in developing their own performative language and in finding the artistic form that best corresponds to their individual inquiry.
