The Museo de Arte Moderno de Buenos Aires presented Performathon<\/em>, a marathon of summer performances: a series of tests, experiments, projects, talks, videos, and historical and contemporary archival documentation hosted in the Museum\u2019s second floor gallery and the surrounding area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cycle explored four main areas: 1) The Word<\/strong>: with different formats such as political discourse, art conferences, television, and oral and written narratives; 2) The Object<\/strong>: body-driven sculpture and the relationship between painting and performance; 3) The Esoteric<\/strong>, including astrology, exorcism, tarot and dream machine sessions; and 4) The Stage<\/strong>, the relationship between theatre and contemporary art, cross-dressing, catwalks and parties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Performathon<\/em> was a flexible cycle in which some artists started off the marathon and others joined it as it went on. The exhibition design adapted to fit each situation, but always used the same elements: the Museum\u2019s pedestals, display cases and other exhibition-related resources provided a foundation and different technologies were used by artists and curators according to the needs of the moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
