POTLATCH


POTLATCH


Saturday 16th February - 7pm till late







Potlatch, a collaborative project between 3rd year Fine Art students.
5 artists from Bath Spa and 5 artists from UWE have been working on a collaborative project examining issues associated with the documentation of performance art.
The culmination of the project has resulted in a performance event at Motorcade/FlashParade in Bristol and an exhibition examining the concept of performance documentation at 44AD in Bath.

Potlatch, a celebration where everyone brings a dish to the table. The dinner table, once thought of as the first theatre, lends itself as the site for our potlatch to occur. 
Investigating the value of authorship, explored within both performance and collaborative practice, the 10 artists have worked together, bringing in elements of their own practice to form a collaborative event and exhibition. 
Motorcade/FlashParade will host the one-night only event on Saturday 16th February.
