100 YEARS (VERSION #1, DUESSELDORF), JULIA STOSCHEK COLLECTION,  Duesseldorf 10 October 2009 – 29 July 2010

Starting in October 2009 the JULIA STOSCHEK COLLECTION will present its first-ever exhibition in collaboration with P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center (New York) and Performa, the international performance biennial (New York). The exhibition documents the past hundred years of performance art.

After beginning in Duesseldorf, the exhibition will move to New York’s MoMA/ P.S.1 in November 2009 and then to other institutions around the world. Conceived as a research project that would provide an overview of the most significant movements, events and performances of the past hundred years, the exhibition will take place within the context of this year’s Performa 09 and will honour the one hundredth anniversary of the Futurist Manifesto.

The content and number of exhibits will vary depending on the specific location. The exhibition will also establish connections to the local performance scene in each city.
The project is organised by P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center, an affiliate of MoMA - The Museum of Modern Art, New York and Performa 09, New York. Curator of this project is Klaus Biesenbach, Chief Curator of MoMA’s Department of Media and Performance and Chief Curiatorial Advisor at P.S.1 with RoseLee Goldberg, acclaimed Performa director and curator. Financial support for the research project comes from the JULIA STOSCHEK FOUNDATION e.V. (Duesseldorf).
