Location: Ephemeral Geometry (Stage)
Time: 17:00 - 18:00

Screening with introduction by Kiki Petratou from Attraction of the Opposites

Attraction of the Opposites presents Acting Out, a screening of works of 8 international artists who embed role-playing and moving image in pursuing of their projects. The compilation varying in style and scope brings together artist performances ranging between documentary, animation and video art. "Acting Out" investigates the role of the artist as director, researcher, messenger, mediator and executor; from the politically engaging work of Gil & Moti and Katharina D. Martin and the socio-political approach of Duro Toomato, delving into the subcultural movements of Alexis Milne to jump into the dutiful reality of Fotini Gouseti and the eccentric rituals of Martin Hansen and on to the personal inquests of Adonis Migkos and Alexander van Merle.
