A series of artistic performances, installations, talks and workshops curated by Sandra Noeth and Annika Niemann

What does it mean, and what does it take, to cross a border? How do we experience borders, both spatially and physically — on an everyday basis and when we leave familiar terrain? Which actions and movements do we associate with borders?

The ifa Gallery Berlin presents a four-day event pro- gramme addressing the experience of borders from the perspective of bodies. Through a series of performances, original artistic contributions and workshops, a group of international artists will ask participants to examine how borders are created, engendered and negotiated by physical, choreographic and sensory strategies and processes, but also how we can understand and redefine them through physical experience. The programme will be complemented by talks and conversational formats.

In the accompanying Education Lab, pupils from the Bettina-von-Arnim High School in Reinickendorf will explore borders within the context of the school: Which patterns of movement are encoded in the realm of the school? Which actions, behaviours and structures influence physical experiences? Is there room for manoeuvre? Which paths do these invisible borders follow? And can they be redrawn?
