FOLKOSIS / a performative dispute on the politics of inspiration

kollektiv mad.Nest / Markus Posse /

A wild and a crazy body meet and merge into a template. The performers dance their cultural and mental identities into place. They draw their energy from the fascination for the free, irrational and radically poetic behind their sources of inspiration. But how far can this process between imitation and irritation be taken?

Based on the manifesto text "Anticultural Positions" by the founder of Art Brut, Jean Dubuffet, a performative confrontation develops around the longing for the original.
