TALK | SOFIA-ELIZA BOURATSI

Sofia Eliza Bouratsis | ‘273 hours facilitating the Abramovic Method_long durational performance’

The art theorist and curator Sofia Eliza Bouratsis is a PhD candidate at Université Paris 1 – Panthéon-Sorbonne, conducting research on the body, its images and its social, philosophical, scientific and political boundaries, as they are expressed in contemporary art. Her talk is inspired by her experience as facilitator in the Αbramović Method and is based on a philosophical approach to the history of the body in art and more specifically, on the -extremely serious- game with body limits in performance art. Finally, she will mention the aesthetics of the body in the Αbramović Method.
