Celebrate 10 years of ]performance s p a c e [ as their PSX culminates with a 10-hour, durational performance event featuring new commissions by 9 influential performance artists.
Born out of the Occupy movement, ]performance s p a c e [ (PS) has carved out a nurturing space, allowing artists to experiment and evolve their practice in a supportive community. The featured artists, who include Anne Bean, Martin O’Brien and Alastair MacLennan reflect the breadth of these relationships and are a testament to PS’s significant position in the UK’s performance scene, both historically and moving forward.
Co-founded by artistic director Benjamin Sebastian, ]performance s p a c e [ relocated from East London to Folkestone in 2015. London now welcomes ]performance s p a c e [ back with an opportunity to experience their distinctive vision and programming. Says Benjamin Sebastian: “Ten years of sustained activity from any DIY artist-run initiative is significant. Particularly from an organisation like ]performance s p a c e [, with a focus on an ephemeral artform such as performance art.”
