Description: | The Performance Dinners are an ongoing series of collaborative group artworks organised by the Subjectivity & Feminisms Research Group. This No. 8 in the series took place in Athens, Greece with performances from 20 invited artists. The artists were asked to respond to the title of the event 'The Bankorgs', with subtitle: 'Donna Haraway's 'The Cyborg Manifesto'; to creatively comment on the meaning of the cyborg, a mutated humanoid, compared with the hypothetical mutation in 'bankorg', an organisation that is transformed by the prevalence of banks at multiple sociopolitical levels. The event lasted 2-and-a-half hours in front of an audience of 200 in one of the most prestigious alternative arts venues in Greece: BIOS, Athens. The event was made in partnership with Maria Paschalidou in Athens. |
