re.act.feminism #2. A Performing Archive

re.act.feminism #2 is a growing, temporary and living performance archive traveling through Europe from 2011 to 2013. It presents feminist, gendercritical and queer performance art by a vast number of artists and artist collectives from the 1960s to the beginning of the 1980s, as well as contemporary positions.

Bringing together works from Eastern and Western Europe, the Mediterranean and the Middle East, the US and Latin America, the project offers artistic views across time and geography, aiming to strengthen cross-generational and trans-cultural dialogue. En route through Europe this temporary archive will be continuously expanded through local research and cooperation with art academies and universities and is accompanied by workshops, performances and talks.
