Alexandra Bachzetsis (lives and works in Zurich/CH) understands the conceptual and physical form of the human body both as a medium and as a process or substance. In a scenic solo exhibition at Kunst Halle Sankt Gallen, Bachzetsis will present a new work entitled Notebook. The project is a radical exploration of the performer`s own biography as a dancer, choreographer and artist. It not only incorporates autobiographical aspects of her life, but also focuses on her artistic affinity for the fragmentary, sketch-like and unfinished in creative thought processes. The exhibition will take shape as an idiosyncratic mix of dance elements, performative strategies and self-recording practices, attempting to turn back time and dismantle identity constructions.
The exhibition by Alexandra Bachzetsis is supported by Sophie und Karl Binding Stiftung (Sélection d’Artistes N°99) and Susanne und Martin Knechtli-Kradolfer-Stiftung.
