István Kovács

born 1964 in Hungary started doing performance in 1988. I regularly participate in international performance festivals.

István Kovács (1964) has worked with performance art for 35 years and is known as one of the major performance artists from central Europe. In his work Kovács focuses on the physical body, the flesh and blood, life, and death, without forgetting the role played by the mind.

His work may be physical, he can be naked, and his body covered in paint or wrapped in materials such as plastic film, or cellophane, but his work always has a conceptual stance. Creating live images with an existential twist, Kovács analyzes the implications of being human, of life, birth, and rebirth. He gives focus on how contemporary man related others fundamental issues interacting with artificial as well as natural materials. Humor and irony are often part of his very large and liberating palette of expression. Lives and works in Monor, Hungary.

(Jonas Stampe, Infraction 9)

Plienbangchang’s performances is characterised using both his body and objects to transform the space in between the chaotic society, politics, poaching and interactions.

For Plienbangchang, performance art is a venue where one can find “Freedom of expression,” Freedom of perception,” and “Freedom of introspective and imagination”.

Alan Schacher

born Sydney 1952, lives in The Blue Mountains, Australia.

A performance creator and artist working at the intersection of dance, installation, theatre and architecture, his works address the essence of site, employing materials that perform in relation to and with the body. Driven by his post-Holocaust legacy, he proposes diaspora as a contemporary condition that calls to question any possibility of home-land. His works evoke imaginary histories and rituals for place and time. He employs collaboration and improvisation as essential methods and is committed to engagement with the fields of contemporary Asian arts practices. The founder of Sydney performance ensembles Gravity Feed and Gravity Research Institute, he currently works solo and in duet with partner WeiZen Ho.

Major projects in 2022 were:

Evaporative Body, Multiplying Body, (with WeiZen Ho) a commission for The Keir Choreographic Award, performed at Dancehouse, Melbourne and Carriageworks, Sydney

Black ST/Reamer, dynamic installation on Kandos Museum’s rooftop for Cementa22 Arts Festival, Kandos NSW Australia
