Performance Situation Room
Performance Situation Rooms (PSR's) are open, highly focused artistic gatherings with their content being shaped by upcoming and current artistic, political and social developments. As such, they adapt to the actual situation and the partners specific environments – from artists’ gatherings to debates to performances and assemblies. They invite and address members and experts from different fields and civil society; they intervene in local burning issues, develop educational and participatory practices and allow for spontaneous collaborations with activists and the cultural field as such.

Artist Lab "How we dance - how we work!"
Under the Performance Situation Room label, Uferstudios has already hosted several Artist Labs on topics such as aesthetics, cultural politics, self-organization and work culture as part of Life Long Burning. The Artist Lab 2024 "How We Dance - How We Work" dealt with the working conditions, necessities and emerging changes for disabled, deaf and chronically ill artists. Following on from the Making a Difference project, whose funding provisionally expires at the end of February, the lab offered a space in which there was time for perspectives, demands, wishes and networking for disabled, deaf and chronically ill artists. What needs to change for barrier-free working conditions? How can we enter into a collegial exchange? How can we work together?
The lab took place on January 25 and 26, 2024.
The participants were Anajara Amarante, Angela Alves, Camilla Pölzer, Carolin Hartmann, Irene Giro Paradell, Jan Kress, Kate Brehme, Rita Mazza and Roisin Keßler.
Noa Winter chaired the discussion.
