HUMATIC ÉTUDE #1 . 2016
A performance by CARL MICHAEL VON HAUSSWOLFF
Introduced by MARIO GARCÍA TORRES
Performed at Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary, Viena
As the EPHEMEROPTERÆ I
Marking the beginning of the 5th season of EPHEMEROPTERÆ, TBA21’s summer-series dedicated to the performative articulations of spoken word phenomena, premieres with Carl Michael von Hausswolff´s Humatic Étude #1 for piano (dedicated to Conlon Nancarrow) and an introduction by Mario García Torres.
With EPHEMEROPTERÆ 2016, Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary launches the fifth consecutive season of the foundation’s summer season spoken-word performance series held in nine prolonged episodes. These unique, open-air acts explore the rich traditions and evanescent articulations of poetry, literature, performance, philosophy, and language-based artistic practice at TBA21–Augarten. EPHEMEROPTERÆ—referring to species which live only for a brief moment—stages the fleeting emergence of singular and truly remarkable voices performing, displaying, and choreographing spoken expression.
