The art of Tino Sehgal is immaterial; it takes shape in the moment in which the spectator encounters it. Since 2000, he has been constructing live situations in which performers enter into contact with the visitors and spectators by way of movements, conversations, or song, inviting them to influence the structure of the work.
Tino Sehgal’s works have been shown in exhibitions and solo shows worldwide, e.g. at the Guggenheim, the Tate Modern, the Martin-Gropius-Bau and at documenta 13. He represented Germany at the Venice Biennale in 2005 and was awarded the Golden Lion in 2013.
The lecture series “Spatial Dramaturgies” investigates the defining cornerstones of the ADSZ study program: of scenography, of exhibitions and their designs, of dramaturgy and curatorial practice. Of the relation of time and space – how they play with us and how we can play with them.
