quality Performance Art and Live Art with audiences across Europe in different

Performers :
Non Grata (Estonia): Anonymous Boh, Devilgirl, Little Korea
Around the name NON GRATA there have been different hushes and shushes for a
long time. Already from the point of view of death of conventionalization of
art it has embodied the horrible and unwanted disembodiment of human person,
from which the meaninglessness of nowadays art, is pouring out. For those,
whose world of arts starts from the point, where the art world ends, NON GRATA
has been a liberator, the orphic gap in the seemingly unalterable course, which
however betrays us, it is a cure from incest. The main point of the group is
ethical - it is the image of primitivism, impersonality and experimental
creativity. The performances of the group take place according to the logic of
avoiding codes. The presentations are physical texts, whose ways of orthography
and reading are kept within limits of real actions by the groupmembers.
Aesthetical and provocative challenges are represented in places, where the Art
World doesn't work.
Anonymous Boh (Estonia)
Estonian Anonymous Boh has been active from 1992 on a frameless territory where
an art object has seized to exist as a physical piece. The space has many
dimensions upon which the activity has been built. Curating the performance
group Non Grata actually means creating a certain kind of school which can be
characterized by features as structured chaos, performances in arbitrary
environments and interiors.
By obtaining its reputation as an alternative, Boh, has swooped onto the global
art landscape without looking back. Performances, art tours organized in tens
of cities across Europe, Asia and America have turned the notoriously
alternative Non Graters into a creative collective who are much better known
elsewhere than in Estonia. Their experience is not a subject much talked about,
although artistic activity transcending boundaries of art and countries is
today’s artist’s most desirable self-realization.
Devilgirl (Estonia)
Devilgirl is Estonian performance, installation and new media artist, educated
in alternative art institution Academia Non Grata in Estonia, Academy of Fine
Arts of Helsinki and Tallinn and Universität der Künste in Berlin. She is one of the main engines of International Non Grata
Performance Group since 1998. As Devilgirl, this femme fatale has been seen on
over continental underground scene worldwide, wild and anonymous. MYSTERY,
BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

Peppe Rosvik (Finland)
After living his childhood in Stockholm suburbs Peter Rosvik arrived to the
Swedish-Finnish countryside Ostrobothnia in 1982 with his family. He initially
studied to a chef before enrolling at art school in Nykarleby, Finland. Since
1994 his work has been exhibited in Finland, Scandinavia and Europe.
Rosvik has worked in a variety of media, including fine art, video, sound, and
installations. Since 2008 he has focused on performance art exploring what he
calls "the often untrue distinctions between the artificial and the natural,
the accepted and the thoughts beyond". Concepts that underpin cultural
construction, such as belonging, marginalization, dialogue and other forms of
socio-cultural phenomena appear to fascinate him. Rosvik enjoys the fictions
and mutability of the ideas of performed identities. The contrasts and
relationships that exist between the natural and constructed worlds suggest to
him the potential of combining aesthetic experience and arts based knowledge
with on site performances where he himself and the audience cannot control the
art experiences generated.
Myk Henry (Ireland/NY)
“Provocation when used intelligently can be a powerful means of jolting the
spectator out of their normal comfort zone. Once this happens the mind is open
to suggestion and people begin to think outside of the box.”
Born in Dublin Ireland; moved to New York 1984. Henry became a pioneer of the Williamsburg bohemian “immersionist” movement. His art investigates the audience's sense of self awareness, engages them in a transformative process. His work is provocative, edgy and slams the viewer into the center of political issues, social conditioning and human taboos.

Blanque Commune. Individualists of Terre Blanque, Zone Autonomie, are
