Flying Circus. A Movie and Performance Project Online and at Weltraum Gallery

Artist list

Mara Colecchia, Lena Echelle, Bárbara García, Natasha Mercado, Adriana Radulescu, Loukia Richards, Jason Stein, Christoph Ziegler

Acrobats, bear tamers, horse dancers, gladiators – the joyful illusions of the circus and its characters have been a source of inspiration for artists since Roman times. The circus also evokes the image of the persisting artist who keeps performing despite existential hardships.

Panem et circenses (bread and games), a practice of Roman emperors, became a synonym for reducing the people's needs to basic instincts. The circus was the only place where the emperor's subjects could freely voice demands, mock or even express resentment to his authority.

Guest stars: Aino Astrid Gaedtke, Jorinde Nisse, Hannah Stippl, Ophélia Leclercq (PÿR).
