VISUAL ARTS
With five important works of performance / installation (“The ship of Fools”, “The Book of Dust”, “The Book of Blood”, “Ghost Letters”, “Passion/Flower”), Leibniz Live Art Company, co-founded by Ernst Fischer and Helen Spackman in 2005, is an art collective that aims to present socially engaged and interactive work that addresses issues of home and belonging with a close interest in bio-ethical and ecological concerns.In their numerous projects and collaborations, performance is utilized as an accessible and vibrant means of counter-cultural documentation and regeneration.
Their performance in Thessaloniki is titled: «The Book Of Blood: Human Writes», and the words Right and Write are at its core. They will be replaced in order to multiply their meaning and references. The performance also requires the participant’s donation of a single drop of blood, which shall be used as contribution to a unique version of the United Declaration of Human Rights, one that travels from venue to venue throughout the world.
Additionally and in the same venue, 10 Greek performance artists will present politically inspired performances, under instructions from the Leibniz Live Art Company, who will already have guided participants to an intensive workshop.
