Video of the performance




Jan Fabre invited several artists to integrate art into his dance labo Troubleyn.

Peter Cupere made the work 'Sweat'. Sweat is a performance where the sweat of 5 dancers was caught. They wear specially designed costumes that were made out of plastic and connected by tubes. Before the action, the artist made a separate dish for each dancer. The intention is to catch the sweat from the dancers and to distill it. The sweat will be sprayed on a wall of the dance lab and protected by a glass box. In the glass is a small hole where visitors can smell the sweat. The performance is shown by video in the glass tank. More info will follow soon. The performance is shown for a selective audience (200 people, no places available anymore).

Other artists who are invited to realize a new art integration are: Michael Borremans, Koen Van den Broek, Berlinde De Bruykere, Joep van Lieshout, Robert Devriendt, Johan van Geluwe, ... for the total list from the earlier art integrations and more info: www.troubleyn.be

For the 4 th time in a row, Art Brussels invites upcoming and established artists to create a site specific art work for the fair. The visitor will discover ephemeral and large scale interventions by promising artists, all working and living in Belgium 

www.artbrussels.be

The attentive Art Brussels visitor will be rewarded by the discovery of a smell installation by Peter De Cupere. Behind an ordinary door, next to the busy media booths, the visitor enters into a completely different environment. Via an intimate long corridor covered with retro wall paper, the visitors steps into two different rooms; a bathroom and a living room which are both filled with its opposite hardly bearable smells. Living the experiences of the intense odors might generate an activation of lost memories as in Prousts’ Madeleine scene.
