nuit blanche: lights out

Over the last year students from the department of Art and Art History at Sheridan College were introduced to performance practices in a new inter-disciplinary performance course. This course investigated ways in which the body informs issues surrounding identity, gender, activism and the body within space. Expanding from this point, students explored the role of performance in relationship to: social and daily ritual, audience interaction, spectatorship and interventions of public and private space.

To celebrate their research students will be presenting new and re-imagined performances, audio works, videos, and performance ephemera for this year’s Nuit Blanche at Camera Bar. Titled, Lights Out!, this event will run from Oct.3 6:55 PM, 2009 to Oct.4 2009 at sunrise.
