A Movie & Performance Project online and at Weltraum Gallery Munich
7 – 14 March 2021
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.
FLYING CIRCUS presents art works – videos, jewellery art, textile art, performance – inspired
by the circus and its tradition – literally or metaphorically. The artists’ videos are screened at
Weltraum Gallery Munich from 11 to 14 March 2021 and are shown online on 7 + 14 March
2021 (see details below).
