VIDEO EXCERPT - LIVE @F.I.S.Co.10 - 17/4/2010

In Culture & Administration, together performer/choreographers, Jennifer Lacey and Antonija Livingstone dance out their contemplations of the ongoing paradox at work in the Culture Industry. All things considered, this choreography is like a love story, a hot hot romance, between two magical creatures. Instigated by a commission from the Festival Avignon, and guided by the spectre/spirit of Gertude Stein, Livingstone and Lacey offer a glimpse of the vitality of spectacle.
The stage is set as a field for friends who may illustrate/illuminate and transform one another. The performance is a 'grow op'. The hypnotic ringing of handbells, and the recalcitrant use of minor explosives, are for their mutual entertainment and in the end they are singing, if not questioning what 'citizen's potential' might look like.
