March 8 - 7PM

Liberty is everything when it necessitates a love for a human
a performance by The--family (with Sjoerd Dijk and Wojciech Kosma)

in conjunction with the exhibition Drowning and swallowing this text, opening March 13 at LACE

at best the contradictions are contemplated,

but it promises a child badassness intersecting you

and real time coinciding with the summoned time.

liberty is everything

when it necessitates a love for a human

of the kind that grants nothing outside of presence,

since shit gets as real

as your living way a faithful copy of it

The--family consists of collaborators who relate to one another transparently and intimately in an ongoing performative practice that creates a collective reality – at times theatrical, yet hardly staged.

The--family performs regularly in Berlin and occasionally where some of the performers are based, including Los Angeles.

Please note: Doors close promptly at 7PM with no late entries. The performance runs approximately two hours.
