work in progress

composition for cctv during dance on focus festival - rio de janeiro 2009
workshop by paola barreto

the workshop will take place on the second weekend of july

first i will present a selection of different works on video, performance, film, theater and dance that explores surveillance images through different art dispositifs (luksch, teran, viola, nauman, calle, graham, paik, etc.) the idea is to place my proposal in a context of contemporary art and academic discussion.

on the second half, we will organize the ideas and concepts raised during the analisys of the works presented: insecurity, fear, terrosism, melancholia, voyeurism, attention, suspicion, stereotypes, curiosity, doubt, fact&fiction and others (i need some time to organize it better, hope i'll get it in paraty!)

on the second day of the workshop we we will develop a partiture and a grammar of moves, actions and behaviors over wich we could develop a choreography for spaces under surveillance.

horizon is more clear. (i hope)
