Alex Villar in conversation with Simon Sheikh
Iaspis, Stockholm
On the relation between photography and performance
sintesi del comunicato stampa
On the relation between photography and performance. Villar has developed a practice that concentrates on issues of social space and the public sphere. Taking an interdisciplinary theoretical approach, employing video-performance, installation and photography he intervenes in public spaces. These interventions consist in positioning the body of the performer, often the artist himself, in situations where the codes that regulate everyday activity can be made explicit. Sheikh is a curator and critic.
