Researcher Exchange Tuesday 28/5 17.00
Join the APL Morning Practices – still in the evening every Wednesday
17.00-18.30
Carolina Cappelli is an Italian performer, filmmaker and artistic gymnastic teacher. Her research is trans-disciplinary and involves the hybridization between writing and performative and cinematic practices. Strongly related to re-enactment as a primary tool of investigation, she often works with pre-existing material as a starting point for generating alternative narratives and researching the image of the catastrophe and the catastrophe of the image.
Heads up☝️
Following Costas practice on the 22.05 17.00-18.30 the evening will extend into #APLpresence. No matter if straight after practice or fresh out of something else, join us for some tea and cosy vibes 19.00-20.00

LICHTHÖHE explores the layers of an architectural-tectonic structure in which the history of the earth and the history of mankind, awe and consumption, tradition and a state of emergency overlap. In the summer of 2020, while the High Alpine Road is in operation, images will be created that reference the symbolic repertoire of the entire Alpine region. At the same time, a film crew captures the event in digital image sequences and shifts the perspective on what is seen: are the crisp, clear clouds in the sky the result of elaborate night filming technology or merely telltale signs of an old film trick, American Night?

A film of philosophical, poetic action, “STRATA” blends film and performance art to explore the fascinating history of caves as sites of knowledge-making and art creation. Through interdisciplinary processes, artists and researchers investigate the connection between the human body and the geological depth of subsurface environments. The project focuses on the prehistoric caves of the Swabian Jura, where Ice Age humans created the oldest known examples of human figurative sculptures. Coming together to look into the river of human civilisation and to share what they had found, the collective of artists irradiate concepts of time, ecological intelligence and politics through performances for the camera. The film pinholes a perspective on a world where art, science and multiple perspectives nourish each other in co-creative processes. Nestled inside the dark subsurfaces of the land, the human body and stratified societies are tied in continuity to the geological, beheld through a lens of queer ecology. The caves are the symbiotic realms to dance between embodiment and scrutiny, the unseen and the unforeseen, the oppressed and unspoken, the forgotten and the repressed. www.stratafilm.de
Verena Stenke and Andrea Pagnes work together as VestAndPage internationally in performance art, performance-based film, writing, publishing and temporary artistic community projects for generative inquiry and collective imaginings. For over a decade, VestAndPage have explored performance art and filmmaking as phenomena through their collaborative multimedia art practice, artistic research and curatorial projects. They have produced performance-based art and films, among others, under Antarctic glaciers, at the Himalayan foothills, in the vastness of Tierra del Fuego, in military enclaves, or inside prehistoric cave systems. In a psychogeography of symbiotic realms, they move between embodiment and research, the unseen and the unforeseen, the oppressed and unspoken, the forgotten and the repressed. Their art practice is contextual and focuses on art’s liminal, spectral and ritual nature. Their works have been presented at various sites, museums, galleries, theatres, and cinemas worldwide, and they share their methodology on collaborative performance and filmmaking in master classes and as lecturers at various art academies. They are the founders and directors of the Venice International Performance Art Week, and their research and poetic writings have been extensively published and translated for international readers. www.vest-and-page.de

Bare Bodies – ganz ohr/all ears – Questionology
24 January 17.00
APL studio, Georg-Coch-Platz 2
Reading from three books in a Circle (test, test)
With Mariella Greil, Ricarda Denzer, Cordula Daus & Charlotta Ruth
APL cordially invite you to a collateral reading from recent APL related publications:
An anthology, an artist book and an exercise book, three exquisite printed matters which will be presented by the writers/editors themselves with collegial admiration. Attention: By means of a score (scroll down), we will not only activate our own publication – we’re proposing a first model for a Reading/Listening Circle.
Hope to see you there!
1. Make some space and time for the book in question.
2. Read attentively. Read inattentively.
3. Find a passage that connects to you/your book.
4. Note down where it takes you (page, place, other).
5. Let’s call this a wormhole.*
6. Make space for a yet unknown reader on your right side.
7. Read through the holes.
* Who are we to explain you what a wormhole is! As no matter of fact, a wormhole is a hypothetical structure connecting disparate points in spacetime. While wormholes are consistent with the general theory of relativity, it remains to be proven how they operate between books and readers.
