Going Tornado: Revisiting Paul Neagu's 1974 Aberdeen Performance
-

This is a past event

A screening of the original performance followed by a talk about the significance of the work by Amy Bryzgel.

In 1974, the Romanian artist Paul Neagu (1938-2004) did a live performance in Aberdeen, at the Grampian TV Studios. It was broadcast to viewers across the region as part of the Images TV series, a programme dedicated to the visual arts. This pioneering performance can be understood as an artistic interpretation of what it means to be human.

This event will feature a screening of the original performance followed by a talk about the significance of the work by Amy Bryzgel, lecturer at the University of Aberdeen and specialist in Eastern European performance art, along with discussion. All welcome.

Part of the Being Human festival of arts and humanities. For more information on the festival please see:
