LISA projects


  Residency AHK

Three of the LISA-artists - Nicole, Ivana and Paz - have been invited by the Lectoraat Art Practise and Artistic Development to be artists in residency at the Amsterdam School of the Arts in 2008. Rather than a series of workshops they proposed to meet both students and teachers, in order to go into discussion […]

  THE OLD BRAND NEW

THE OLD BRAND NEW is a series of English-language lectures, co-initiated by LISA, in which speakers from the Netherlands and abroad, with backgrounds in diverse disciplines - from the visual arts and theatre to dance and architecture - reflect on ‘the old in the new’ (and vice versa) from varying, oscillating perspectives.
In the arts, ‘newness’ […]

  LISA live(s) in Kikker

Theater Kikker and Springdance invited LISA to ‘occupy’ Theater Kikker from December 19th to 22nd. LISA seized this opportunity to present new or rarely shown work of herself.

  Performativity of the research on performativity

On December 4th 2007, LISA organised a discussion evening: Performativity of the research on performativity, in Gasthuis Theater.

  writing performance

Pilot project during the Something Raw Festival 2006
Curated by Hester van Hasselt and David Weber-Krebs
LISA initiated this project out of the urge to widen the context in which dance and performance take place by creating meetings that should ideally provoke a mutual contamination between two universes.
The idea was to put two artists presented in the […]

  Structure Multifonctions

LISA & Nicolas Floc’h
The sculptural/architectural module Structure Multifonctions by the French artist Nicolas Floc’h forms the starting point for the piece in which LISA creates a performative matrix made for/with/by 15 performers and 15 spectators. Using topics of “Frame”, “Meeting” and “Exchange” as dominant qualities of LISA as collective, Nicole Beutler, Hester van Hasselt, Ivana […]
