On November 3 at 2:30 pm, another edition of Performances in the Contemporary will take place at FLUP – Meeting Room (2nd Floor) / Anfiteatro Nobre, at the Institute of Philosophy, University of Porto. This session features performances by Emídio Agra, Gabriela Vaz-Pinheiro, Jorge Palinhos, and Rossana Fonseca.

The project, organized as a laboratory and series of thought encounters, brings together voices and approaches in performance and performative arts as vehicles for a politics of the contemporary. It explores the expanded territory of performance, including movement, archive, discourse, and strategies of command or destruction, reflecting on the potential and political body. Created in 2015, the project articulates practice and theory, documenting works that question the condition of the contemporary and produce singular forms of resistance and reflection.
