Fusebox Talks: Action Hero
April 24 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Austin Museum of Art
Join us throughout the festival beginning Sat April 24, for a series of conversations with various participating Fusebox artists. It’s a casual/fun way to get to know the artists and the thinking behind their work. In conjunction with Culturebot.org (NYC), the conversations will last under an hour--we hope you can join us.
SATURDAY, APRIL 24th: ACTION HERO
Action Hero make live art and performance that seeks to use audiences as collaborators and co-conspirators. We are interested in creating work that links audiences together and unifies them as part of the live event, building a temporary community. our process has been defined by necessity: a raw aesthetic has become central to our work. Whilst exploring the epic, we create performance that is intimate, distinctive and invigorating.
Action Hero is the collaboration between artists Gemma Paintin and James Stenhouse. We've been making performance together as Action Hero since 2005, and we live and work in Bristol, where we're Arnolfini Associate Artists and members of Residence.
