Programme (PDF, 342 KB)

33 hours of Performance Art. The festival Revolve moves, in a circular pattern, between different locations in the city: the art museum, the park, the street, the concert house, the bus and the theatre stage. The encounter between the artist, the audience and the different spaces becomes active elements of the art event.

Revolve aims at bringing together a richness of performative expressions and artistic strategies allowing them to enhance, affect and collide with one another. Welcome to take part in an intense festival, rotating and revolving around art as event, experience and gathering.

Revolve Performance Art Days is organised by Uppsala Art Museum, Uppsala Konsert & Kongress, Köttinspektionen Dans and Gustaf Broms in collaboration with Royal College of Art, London.
