-Studies for an Exhibition Curated by Mathieu Copeland at The David Roberts Art Foundation Fitzrovia, London April 6 - June 11, 2011 ILLUSION, DELUSION, ALLUSION (STUDIES FOR A MOVEMENT AT 66 RPM) THE ORDER OF ANARCHY Performance by Elena Bajo in collaboration with London based dancers Mariana Tarragano, Mara Domenici, Paola di Bella. A new site-specific performance piece that confronts an anarchist manifesto, movement, objects, time,space and sound. The three dancers are given an anarchist manifesto to read that will generate their individual movements. The music of the performance is generated by translating each word of the anarchist manifesto into musical notes following a method John Cage used back in the sixties. The dancers have no knowledge in advance of the music that they will be dancing to or what the other dancer's movements will be. The process of not-knowing, indeterminacy and improvising is made visible, a space devoided of hierarhies is created
