At 11 AM

The Südtiroler Künstlerbund (SKB), in collaboration with the Antonio Dalle Nogare Foundation, presents on Saturday, 12 September, at 11 AM, as part of Transart 2026, the ten performance projects selected through the Open Call DRAWN TO RISK – HOUSE OF PERFORMANCE, dedicated to artists, collectives and performers, who were born, reside or are professionally active in South Tyrol.

DRAWN  TO RISK promotes bold and radical performative practices that explore the relationship between the body, space and contemporary social issues through physical, sonic or mental actions that deliberately push boundaries. At its core, the project features artistic approaches  that challenge limits, embrace risk as a creative element, and understand performance as a direct form of engagement with the present.  
The initiative aims to open up new perspectives, transforming the Foundation’s spaces into a venue for artistic presence, active participation and exchange.

As a laboratory of the present — a place of experimentation, openness, and exchange —all of the Foundation’s spaces will be brought to life by the interventions by Matteo De Caminada, frranzrrrina, Peter KOMPRIPIOTR Holzknecht, Katharina Theresa Mayr, Harald Plattner, Camilla Prey, Susanna Schoenberg, Leander Schwazer, Lena Simonetti, and Valeria Stuflesser, through immediate and participatory performative practices that explore the relationship between the body, space, and contemporary social issues through physical, sonic, mental, and relational actions.

The collaboration between the Südtiroler Künstlerbund (SKB) and the Antonio Dalle Nogare Foundation stems from a shared desire to strengthen the presence of performance art in South Tyrol, creating a space open to dialogue, research, and experimentation.

Artists

MATTEO DE CAMINADA - (Glass) Closet

Matteo De Caminada is an interdisciplinary artist. His politically inclined practice connects sculpture, installation and performance to critically study power structures, social norms and forms of collective responsibility.

 

FRRANZRRRINA (RINA TREML UND FRANZ HOFER) - wow and flutter*

Frranzrrrina was born in a Tomato field in 2024. Since then, they have experimented with materials, media, their context, and decontextualization. Their performances combine the Genius Loci with fleeting moments and architecture with emotions, weaving them into unusual contexts.

 

PETER KOMPRIPIOTR HOLZKNECHT - GENNARINO’S EARBLEEDING

Based in Bolzano, internationally active: KOMPRIPIOTR stands for a radical culture of error, experimentation, and improvisation with noise, images, and activism. With GENNARINO’S EARBLEEDING, he showcases a radical performance, inspired by the blood miracle of Saint Gennaro.

 

HARALD PLATTNER – IMPRINT

Harald Plattner is a visual artist. In his performative practice, he examines perception, the body, and societal influences, creating situations in which the public must become an active component of the artistic experience.

 

CAMILLA PREY – PREY (PERFORMER: JULIA INDERST, THERESA PREY AND YANG HUI LING) Tre

Camilla Preys practice examines how gestures and relationships between human and non-human actors make states along temporal and spatial axes visible. Through a somatic perspective, ambiguities are not resolved but rather experienced in their simultaneity.

 

LENA SIMONETTI – fisicoritmo

Lena Simonetti writesincorporates performative poetry monologues, hybrid songs blending sung lyrics with Spoken Word and acting, explores body detached from verbal language – dances with transdisciplinarity and plurilingualism!

 

VALERIA STUFLESSER – VetaVadis

For Valeria Stuflesser, a wooden board serves as a stage for her performance. Here, stories are shared and visually recorded. While one person narrates, the other translates those perceived tales into pictures that are then incised into the wood with a fine carving tool.

 

LEANDER SCHWAZER - The Power of Art

Leander Schwazer, a post-conceptual artist, makes a rigid readymade physically tangible through performance. The audience is invited to confront the artist with their own bodies and experience the power of art.

 

SUSANNA SCHOENBERG – VESS

Susanna Schoenberg creates performative, cross-media works at the intersection of film, video, installation, and performance. Her practice focuses on translation, reactivity, gestures, the techno-image, and nonlinear narration.

 

KATHARINA THERESA MAYR (IN COLLABORATION WITH LUDOVICO COLATO) - XYZ.; WHAT IF HUMANS MOVED LIKE MATTER?

Katharina Theresa Mayr works at the intersection of performance, installation, and artistic research. In her work, body, material, and space become vehicles for transformation, relationship, and collective experience.
