...public hair...

The performance was created as part of the performance project ...und HAAR und HAAR und HAAR und..., which was shown at theTheatre of Cologne in 2006. For the first time, the performance installation is now being transferred into the public space. Here human hair is shown in all its contradictoriness - as a sign of female beauty and captivity, and simultaneously of strength and fragility.

Director Biography - Angie Hiesl, Roland Kaiser

Angie Hiesl + Roland Kaiser

Choreographer, performance and installation artist Angie Hiesl has been presenting her interdisciplinary projects since the 1980s. The artistic collaboration between Angie Hiesl and Roland Kaiser started in 1997, since then they have developed all of their projects together. This means that all concepts, choreographies and installations are being developed and created collectively. They present their interdisciplinary projects at locales distant to art in private and public urban spaces.

Their artistic and performative interventions create new contexts, condensing local peculiarities and putting them in context to social phenomena. Thematically, their coordinates are to be found in the relationship between the human body and space/ architecture as well as in the relationship between humans and their respective cultural, social, political, and global environment.

The human body is a central topic, with its confines and no limitations at the same time. Hiesl’s and Kaiser’s original aesthetic means of expression as well as their concepts turn out to be sensual provocations – an invitation to the audience and to passers-by alike to take a new look at something we believed was familiar, a re-arrangement of reality. They communicate their art in workshops and lectures. The multi-award winning works are being shown globally.
