Alexandra Bachzetsis (b. 1974) is a choreographer and visual artist working at the intersection of dance, performance, visual art and theatre. Many of her works are concerned with the ways in which we appropriate gestures, modes of expression, patterns of identification and fantasies from popular culture as we constantly reinvent and define our bodies. ‘2021:Obscene’ is a new work, and the museum version is receiving its première at the Kunsthaus. In it, she uses performance to explore the interdependencies between the ‘scene’ (acting and staging), and the ‘obscene’. ‘2021:Obscene’ is both exhibition and, from time to time, live performance.
