perform performing
by Jochen Roller
artists do need money, after all, who can escape from the dollar sign ?
none
when you wanna live, you need food, at least
and to get food, you need money
artists seemed to be subsidised
by the government of course, who gets the revenue from tax
so, in anyway you wanna see it, directly or indirectly, we, tax-payers help the survival of artists
the problem now is that
these tax-payers, or we
do not go to theatre or gallery to watch art
we, conscious or unconsciously reject the enlightenment which art provides
without even trying or making the effort to see the art
so
we are wasting the cost benefit of our money
which is essential, not only for the artists but for ourselves too
are we going to further waste our dollars ?
enjoy art
another reason why you should watch art
especially performing art
well, this does apply to visual art, as well as other kind of arts
the artists perform their performances
they use their bodies
thoughts and minds
skills and talents
for ? US
they dance for us, they act for us, they sing for us, they paint for us
the least we can do, apart from paying taxes, is to appreciate these efforts
clap
applause
that's the minimum
that is my intepretation of jochen roller's perform performing
it was an almost 3 hour show
mostly he talked/acted .. wait, talked
he danced a bit but those were really good
it was an m18 show
so i would not discuss further about it hahaha
there are a lot of dance performances coming up, of course interesting ones
one of which i really wanna catch is The Way of Air by Post Ego Company from Korea
also the Legacy of Goh Chong San ... is that how you spell his name ? by SDT
also some interesting ones by NUS
