At the event, expect the unexpected, including provocative poetry and performance art that centers on the journal’s theme, “Ethics Cleansing.” Guests and performers are encouraged to wear costumes in the spirit of Dada, the influential anti-art movement that sprouted during World War I and has been influential in counterculture movements ever since, including the Beat generation, Fluxus, punk, hip hop and more.
Previous Three Rooms Press European Dada Salons have been the stuff of legend, with events during the past decade in London, Brussels, Paris, Bilbao, Bastia, and Florence. Each salon includes performances by internationa and local contributors to the critically-acclaimed annual contemporary dada journal, Maintenant, with five to fifteen performers per event. Performers are often in outlandish costumes, and offer very imaginative presentations of conceptual artistry, singing, dancing, and sound poetry, among other acts.
