PIT

‘Perform Inform Transform: Participatory Performance in Art Museums’ is a multi-annual European initiative that aims to boost the recognition and reach of performance art. Performances can nurture and deepen relationships between citizens and museums in Europe, proposing new paradigms for participatory and intergenerational dialogues.

However, the production, circulation and presentation of performances also present challenges, raising various ethical, environmental, technical and artistic questions. Through newly commissioned performances, professional workshops, research activities, film screenings, or debates held across six European countries, PIT aims to address these questions and propose innovative ways to engage and activate our bodies in museum spaces. 

The project has received a three-year grant from the EU Creative Europe Programme under its ‘Cooperation Project’ strand. Its primary partners are the Centre for Fine Arts of Brussels (Bozar – Belgium), Mudam Luxembourg – Musée d’Art Moderne Grand-Duc Jean (Luxembourg), CAC Contemporary Art Centre (Lithuania), Serralves Foundation (Portugal), TEA Tenerife Espacio de las Artes (Spain), and Triennale Milano Teatro.
