DAVIS FREEMAN

Artist in residence from  March 03 ’till March 31 – 2014


Davis Freeman (1969) is a performance artist who has been working with Forced Entertainment (Bloody Mess, The World in Pictures), Meg Stuart (Built to Last, Highway 101, Alibi), Stephan Pucher (Kirshgarten, Snapshots) and Superamas (Big 2, Big 3, Empire). Along with this work, in 1999 he created Random Scream with Lilia Mestre to draw attention to what is already there by focusing on our personal interactions and how our choices directly affect each other and the community we live in. The work is extremely eclectic from dance pieces, installations to even lounge acts and is often considered devious political theatre or Docu-performances. Currently he is touring his latest pieces Investment, 7 Promises & Expanding Energy, teaching non acting acting for performers, performing in Meg Stuarts latest piece Built to Last and developing new work for 2014.

PROJECT

Direction: Davis Freeman/ Random Scream

Created and performed by Nanya Eslava Parra, Gašper Piano, Mark Požlep

Now and the Future is an interactive, didactic, game show performance which will trigger elements of surprise depending on the audience. It will raise questions about the environment and ask us how we can conquer some of the challenges we find our selves with. Artist Davis Freeman in the collaboration with composer Gašper Piano, visual artist Mark Požlep and dancer Nanya Eslava, tackles his first piece for children which hopefully works for the old folks also. Enjoy.
