Active Cultures + Triple Canopy: The Holes Marathon

Active Cultures & Triple Canopy present Holes Marathon, Los Angeles: an evening of performances of—and about—holes. Featured artists include: Jackie Amézquita, Jacqueline Kiyomi Gork, Nancy Holt, Maral, Sung Hwan Bobby Park, P.Staff and Alex Tatarsky. ∆ A marathon of brief performances, readings, and meditations on holes—absences, aporias, portals, and clearings—from the body to the earth, from plotholes to potholes. Following artist Pope.L’s assertion that “lack is where it’s at,” together we recast the void as a source of pleasure and potential. The Holes Marathon brings together artists, performers, and researchers whose practices engage absence, rupture, permeability, and refusal—through embodied action, sound, language, and material transformation. The Holes Marathon is a one-night, durational performance program extending the research and artistic inquiry of Not Nothing, Triple Canopy’s thirtieth issue of the magazine. Hosted at 2220 Arts + Archives, the program unfolds over an evening, inviting audiences to move through a sequence of performances, readings, and activations, punctuated by shared “hole foods” and drink.
