ART EMBASSY - signals for help from Emmerich Weissenberger on Vimeo. by GO EPIC
3 Art Embassy Performers intervene from oct 20-25th 2014 as a group in public places between MAK and Museum Quarter in Vienna, to draw attention to the Freiwilligenmesse / Volunteer Fair.
The three performers and accompanying helpers are trained in dance and know how to move and coordinate themselves in public spaces. They use walkers and crutches. The bizarre appearence of the group in working overalls arouse the interest of the people, because the symbolism of walking aids irritates and affects. The movements are dance-like and reduced. They interact with each other and again the audience, "help-seeking situations" are signaled.
"it's up to you"!
