Description
Interactive Performance: Spectrum of Inevitable Violence Wednesday, February 15, 6 pm - AT CAPACITY The unresolved, elusive, but timely forces of cultural and spatial politics are at the heart of Caitlin Berrigan’s Spectrum of Inevitable Violence, which will transform the Cyclorama into a massive arena to explode ideas about social class. Berrigan, who often integrates performance with edible art, asks participants to analyze their class background and map it out as a territory to defend in a dynamic confrontation—with food as ammunition. This battle provides an outlet for all the tensions that lie below the surface of language, and for the inadequacy of survey and analysis to fully represent interpersonal coercions of class and social mobility. Artist Discussion: Ambiguous Affiliations Thursday, February 16, 6:30 pm Caitlin Berrigan will be joined by Anabel Vázquez Rodríguez, curator LA GALERÍA, Villa Victoria Center for the Arts, and James G. Ennis, Associate Professor of Sociology at Tufts University with an expertise in social movements in a discussion moderated by WBUR's Monica Brady-Myerov. The panelists will discuss subjects surrounding Spectrum of Inevitable Violence, such as the slippery affiliations of social class, the role culture plays in their dynamics, and how personal interrelations of class enter into larger political domains. Join us for a light reception at the Beehive immediately following the discussion. RSVPs required, please email
