Practice(≈)Symposium 2026
AND THEN IT GOT WINGS
05.11. – 07.11. 2026
What happens when artistic practice becomes a shared space for experimentation?
And Then It Got Wings is a practice symposium by the Angewandte Performance Lab, a transversal platform for artists working across performance, choreography, visual arts, sound, research, and social practice. Growing out of several years of shared artistic experimentation, the symposium reflects on how the APL practices, methods and collaborations have developed.Through presentations, workshops, conversations, and collective experiments, the symposium invites participants to exchange methods, question conventions, and explore new forms of collaboration. Bringing together diverse artistic voices, it creates a space where practices intersect, ideas take flight, and unexpected connections emerge.
