In 2019 the PERFORMANCE REIHE NEU-OERLIKON celebrated its tenth anniversary as one of the longer-lasting festivals for performance art in public space, and not only in the City of Zurich. We would like to mark the special occasion with this book published by Amsel Verlag Zurich. With this book project, I not only want to conduct a revue of the last ten years through publishing selected images, exchanges/interviews, and texts from the extensive documentation, but through the selection highlight artistic concerns and address key issues in the discourse of art in public space. Maricruz Peñaloza, editor and director/curator of the PERFORMANCE REIHE NEU-OERLIKON.
