A Wave of Verticals – Performance Lecture by Alexandra Harrison

Join artist Alex Harrison for a performance featuring a multi-vocal choreography and ongoing encounter between Agnes Denes’ trees, the Public Sphere and the people of Altona. This is performance as a gesture of passing through. ‘Witnessing is the mission.’

Saturday 14, 21 and 28 March 
Sunday 15, 22, 29 March 

Two performances on each day 12pm and 2pm 

Artist Alex Harrison is a trained anthropologist who has never practised and an untrained artist who has practised for 27 years. She has made visible lots of performance, strange and vanishing treasures. Helen taught her spheres are jewels without edges. Yesterday she learnt to use a ride-on mower. Yesterday was long ago. The list of people she would like to thank is very long and comes in the form of a prayer. 

Notes: This performance can be loud at times. Children must be accompanied by an adult. It’s a standing performance; however, seating will be made available upon request.
