Adhocracy is
Vitalstatistix’s annual make ‘n’ show hothouse, inviting interdisciplinary artists from around
Australia to create, converse and critique in one space (our beautiful home,
Waterside) over the June Queen’s Birthday long weekend.
This is how
it works: artists, selected through a national call-out, spend the long weekend
in a studio environment developing new work, which can span theatre, live art,
dance, sound, installation and more. They are in the early stages of the
process of making and are experimenting with ideas and form. YOU can contribute to their creative
process by coming along and taking part in open studios, artist talks and
work-in-progress showings. To keep it comfortable and real, there’s also a BAR
(open all the time) and taco cat selling their handmade
Mexican food from a 1960s caravan each evening, 6 to 9:30pm.
IN 2013 there are eight projects participating in
Adhocracy – see a snapshot below and download the full program here.
