Join performer Alice Tatge in an alternative tour of the Pipilotti Rist exhibition. This 20-minute interactive tour allows visitors to experience the exhibition from new angles and perspectives.
Of the tour, Tatge has written:
"I am interested in approaching each work of art phenomenologically by instigating and proposing to view the work through a variety of sensory perceptions. I would like to invite the viewer to actively contribute and participate to this experience by accepting to be lead through a series of explorations and tasks, which they can perform themselves. The viewer is guided through these experiences at all times.The ideas underpinning the explorations have evolved from my response to Pipilotti Rist’s work, as well as my personal investigation of embodiment and the object, the dreamlike and the intimate."
I went to one of the alternative tours Tatge was leading in December and it was a wonderful and sensitive way to engage with Pippilotti Rist's work. Tatge's calm and inquisitive demeanour helped me to relate myself to the exhibition. I would recommend going when you have time before or after the tour to let everything digest!
