D.A.F.T. Related events & participants: THE (deviant) ART FESTIVAL in Trollhättan

Fred Lindberg started THE (deviant) ART FESTIVAL as a society and network of contemporary artists in London 2005. The thought behind these art events was to put people and ideas together rather than single pieces of art. To create a foundation for collaborations. In 1937 Hitler exhibited “Entartete Kunst”, 1962 came Fluxus events like “The Festival of Misfits” and today our Art is striving to exist in-between being singled out as a degenerate, or choosing to be a misfit.

A performance by (deviant) participants: (H)Appy Logies, Thursday 9 October , Lisbon, Portugal‏

THE deviant ART FESTIVAL in TROLLHÄTTAN participants performs in Lisbon: (H)Appy Logies presents "Series of routines" an improvised and durational performance on dance routines, mental patterns, and human obsessions at Bacalhoeiro, Rua dos Bacalhoeiros Lisboa Portugal Thursday 9 October 11pm After a series of performances last May in Paris (la Miroiterie) and London (Shunt Vaults), (H)Appy Logies are performing "Series of routines" in Lisbon @Bacalhoeiro on October the 9th. "Series of Routines" is a highly visual, atmospheric and intense performance entirely improvised around a few objects (flour, mirror, "fragile" tape, chairs) and a dancer who comes back to dance after a 16 year break. It explores the violent, the sublime, the absurd and the humorous in human patterns and in our link to every day objects. (H)Appy Logies have worked since 2006 around the visceral in the every day, the human in the routine, the sublime in the domestic,and the political in the personal by forming partly improvised, mainly non narrative performances and through the shaping of tense and intense atmospheres.
