Show Preview - An Evening with Daniel Johnston
Those lucky enough to be hanging around downtown this weekend might have noticed a bunch of passerbys hurriedly jogging from one street corner to the next. Indeed, they were likely looking for the latest temporary installation of Bodies in Urban Spaces, a choreographed dance piece that was part of Fusebox Festival. Dancers moved from one public space to the next and silently formed temporary sculptures incorporating elements of the man made and natural landscape that makes up our urban city center. The site specific piece was directed by choreographer Willi Dorner.

This is by far the most retarded thing I've seen in ages. Even worse than the poloroid picture as some sort of artistic photographic statement.
Loller. The onlookers expressions in picture #9 capture my thoughts perfectly.
Ah, pictures are pictures. What's missing is the rich live-ness of this piece. It was an exhibition of incredible physicality and team work. These guys ran, sometimes sprinting, over 2 miles through downtown Austin, made over 20 sculptures which included inversions that supported sometimes over 300 lbs on top of each other and HOLDING it for over 3 min while the audience walked by. We are lucky to have this guest choreographer Willi Dorner from Austria who has created this work all over the world. It was one of the best live performance art pieces I've ever seen. Congrats Austin, and congrats and thank you to the hard working artists that completed this piece.
oh, LoudMouth.
I think this is one of the more interesting things I've seen in awhile. 6 and 18 are awesome! I wish I had seen this live; I would have jogged along behind them to see what they would do next!
Anything that annoys Loudmouth is A-OK in my book.
Seriously, just move back to San Antonio or somehting
This is pretty stupid, even for Austin standards.
Thank you, Monkster, for having some common fucking sense.
I like it, reminds me of Austrian artist Erwin Wurm
