Hot bodies — Stand-up

Wednesday Oct. 24, 9pm = English performance (talkback after the show) Thursday Oct. 25, 8pm = French performance HOT BODIES — STAND-UP is a live performance for Gerald Kurdian, Trk_x, a sampler and a vocoder. Borrowing to the vocabularies of electronic music concerts, stand-up comedy and documentary photography, it unfolds in seven chants and two danced interludes, his metamorphosis through the encounter of the revolutionary aspects of his sexuality. Like a Dante crossing Heaven and Hell, it echoes to Donna Hardaway’s Cyborg Manifesto, Annie Sprinkle’s HerStory, Starhawk’s spiritual magic or Paul B. Preciado’s Contrasexual Manifesto while looking for performative and musical transductions of the queer, fetish or ecosex political utopias they stand for. HOT BODIES - CHOIR! : Call for participation ​ Presented in collaboration with Usine C (Montréal) and actoral (Marseille) as part of actoral Montréal 2018, 3rd International Biennale of Contemporary Arts and Writing.
