Let the performance of the everyday appear

Klara_Amplifyed

Klara Elenius, the fifth and now former member of Fanclub, have just finished a Master of Fine Art, “New Performative Practises” at DOCH in Stockholm. Amplifying is Klara’s graduation piece, an observational practice that applies a performative gaze on a public space, in this case Sergel’s square in Stockholm. Through a number of tasks she triggers your observation in order to reveal the ongoing performance that surrounds us every day – if only we take the time to see it. So if in Stockholm, download the audiowalk and/or map+tasks and go discover your own unique choreography of the ordinary…

Congratulations Klara and thank you for sharing your work with the world!

2014 has been a crazy, busy, overwhelming and absolutely fantastic year. Starting out with the premiere of the double bill DEATH, next nordic touring with DEATH, research through Collecting Thoughts on Collectivity, showing GONE HOME by Dorte Olesen at the Nordic Forum in Malmö, Fanclub in Exile – residency at HAUT and ending with the space performance PIE IN THE SKY. Now we are going to relax, eat candy, stare into the fireplace and dream of the future…

Thank you for being a part of making this year so special.
We wish you all a lazy holiday and an amazing 2015!

A venue, a bar, a gallery 

There is a new place in town! On the top floor of Huset i Magstræde the old black box have come to new life. The collective behind HAUT consists of young and ambitious theatre people, connected by their wish to promote Danish and international free stage art groups. They offer residencies (“in exile” periods), co-productions and invite artists from across the art fields to be part of their vision of a vivid and creative art community. The season is set continiously keeping the programme fluid and up-to-date, and you can apply for a collaboration with HAUT at any time – they go through the applications every month.

This week Fanclub visit HAUT for a period of exile – come see what we are up to this Saturday 27 Sep at 7.30 pm. Free admission.

See you then and there – the bar opens an hour before the showing, so come have a beer and check out the fine space of HAUT!

A special friend of Fanclub
IMG_3696We have had the pleasure to work with, hang out with, discuss and travel with Ida during the DEATH tour this summer. As a part of our mutual project Collecting Thoughts on Collectivity, she has been interviewing relevant art personalities/groups as well as moderating audience talks in every city during the tour. It is rare that you meet such a generous, articulate and devoted person. We are deeply thankful for her support and for pushing us to ask more questions and take bigger steps in order to keep on developing and exploring the work of/in Fanclub.

Ida-Elisabeth Larsen is a choreographer, performing artist and dramaturge educated at SEAD in Salzburg, with a BA in philosophy and performance design at Roskilde University. She is based in Copenhagen, where she is part of the artist collective RISK as well as the duo two-women-machine-show. Check out her blog where she continiously share her work and sharp thoughts and observations of the art scene.

The articles connected to Collecting Thoughts on Collectivety will be published during 2014/2015, so stay tuned. We look forward to continue this collaboration in the future and hope that more people will have the opportunity to enjoy her sharp, funny and loving company.

Thank you Ida!
