About

M.A.P. (Movement x Archive x Performance) is the 2017 programme curated by Something Human that explores the negotiations of themes related to the intersections of movement, archive and performance over a three-stage project, bringing together central concerns that have threaded through Something Human’s work since its inception to investigate artistic expression on movement across borders.

MAP’s three stages will be presented in collaboration with the International Curators Forum and University of the Arts alongside the Diaspora Pavilion,Venice (MAP 1), Deptford Lounge and The Albany, London (MAP 2) and the Live Art Development Agency and Batubalani, London (MAP 3), where there will be a launch of a new special collection of Southeast Asian-related performance materials to be housed at the LADA Study Room as an open access resource for researchers, artists, students and academics.
