In her durational performance, the artist Anna Berndtson deals with her personal boundaries. Infinitely slow she
moves through a landscape of tennis balls, clearing her way using her white cane. This work evokes associations of competitive sports, visual impairment and speed norms, as well as the “collective trauma“ and the pressure on Swedish children in the 1970s and 80s to become the next Björn Borg.
Anna Berndtson lives and works in Malmö and Berlin. She was a student of Marina Abramović at HBK
Braunschweig. “Borg” (2002) was a turning point in her artistic work. For the first time, the picture became more important
than the action. It also was the first time her disability was the focus of her work.

Going to the theatre often requires long periods of sitting on more or less comfortable seats in confined spaces. We offer alternatives, so that more people can enjoy the event. At all events there are a variety of options for sitting or laying down, e.g. beanbags, sofas or mattresses. These alternative seats are limited.
