J.A.S.I.E.K. M.I.S.C.H.K.E.

Images, links, performances, kindred spirits, interwebs, video links, trying to connect, finding things that relate, music, reaching out, looking in, hiding in plain sight, shouting as hard as you can, and seeing how to do that calmly

Running a bookshop is mostly a lot of bookkeeping of the other kind, albeit with a cooler desk, in a nicer setting. #inventory #robbrechtendaem #bananaforscale #brussellatenights #yesterday #insidekoenig (at BOZAR)

New Opening: BOZAR BOOKSHOP by Walther König

The new BOZAR BOOKSHOP is open! Come and discover all the BOZAR exhibition catalogues, a wide select...

That’s me evading the luring camera, running from left to right ordering books, trying to be ready as quick as possible so I can go home, watch a movie, like some cats on instagram, write something hopefully... but instead I’m stuck in bookshop purgatory.

PATRICK - performance from 2009

Performed during the two part exhibition "the Earth not a Globe" at the Rokeby Gallery in London.

the press-release:

Jasiek Mischke's work deals with the proximity of one thing to another. As an artist he is interested in how far he can extend his presence. His drawings, performances, texts or installations appear as delicate and tender presentations, but in actuality are driven by subversive machinations. On the evening of 29th July Mischke will make a physical manifestation of his drawings in the current exhibition, seen in an ice sculpture, and inspired by the layout requirement of the accompanying exhibition catalogue - that the image could go full bleed. He will also host an informal talk and series of micro-interventions that are characteristic of his live work.

Separation of colour is a re-occuring theme in Mischke's practice, from his time spent in a t-shirt printing company. His drawings reflect this; being a series of coloured lines, they individually follow the artist's hand across the page. Collectively, they create waves accumulating slight curves or inaccuracies when drawing straight lines. By cutting off the end of his drawings Mischke tries to make them potentially go on forever and sees the premature end to the work similarly to that of exists on maps.

METIS is a Cambridge-based performing arts company/network that creates interdisciplinary performance projects created through rigorous research. A fascination with maps, space, technology, travel and history drives our work in a range of media. Our work is characterised by its pursuit of expressive forms that connect with the contemporary world. Metis is the shape-shifting Greek Goddess of wisdom and cunning. She stands for knowledge that is found in practical action, using cunning and ingenuity rather than brute strength. Metis was Zeus’s lover and mother to Athena. She represents those qualities that keep theatre ever evolving: ‘flair, sagacity, intellectual flexibility, deception, resourcefulness, vigilant watchfulness, a sense for opportunities’ (Michel de Certeau, The Practice of Everyday Life)

Blast Theory is renowned internationally as one of the most adventurous artists' groups using interactive media, creating groundbreaking new forms of performance and interactive art that mixes audiences across the internet, live performance and digital broadcasting.
