Between Frame and Art
How defining is a frame for a painting? What if you remove the frame? Or vice versa: what if you remove the artwork and just look at the frame? Frames explores this relationship between frame and art, placing Not Standing’s physical movement art in outdoor visual frames.
Alexander Vantournhout and his three co-performers focus once again on movement art in its purest form. Meticulously, the four performers build ever-changing body sculptures in the viewing frames. Bodies intertwine, hang from and climb on the frames, walk upside down, and defy both gravity and your imagination. Each movement is a continuous search for balance, focusing on cooperation and body control.
The observer can view all this from all sides: from the front, side, and even from below. Perspectives tilt and physical logic seems to disappear. Frames invites you on a trail along choreographic installations that challenge and blend art and viewing perspectives into physical poetry in the public space.
