Persona Performa by Ming Wong<\/strong><\/p>\n

Live Event at Museum of The Moving Image
\nThursday, November 10, 8:00 p.m.
\n36-01 35 Avenue Astoria, New York
\nA Performa Commission<\/p>\n

A site-specific performance, co-produced by Performa and Vitamin Creative Space, for the Performa 11 biennial<\/p>\n

===============<\/p>\n

The internationally acclaimed artist Ming Wong (b. 1971, Singapore) creates installations, video pieces, and visual artworks that examine the nature of identity from cross-cultural perspectives, often through the lens of popular and art cinema.<\/p>\n

In this ambitious new project, which promises to be an unforgettable theatrical experience, he has created a site-specific work for Museum of the Moving Image, responding to the building\u2019s dynamic, fluid, and starkly white architecture. Persona Performa is inspired by Ingmar Bergman\u2019s reflexive 1966 masterpiece Persona, which is about an exchange of identities between an actress and her nurse on the remote F\u00e5r\u00f6 Island. Like Bergman\u2019s film, Ming Wong\u2019s piece is a powerful meditation on cinema and theater. Twenty-four performers, amateur actors from New York, each representing a frame of film, will wind their way through the Museum space; the Museum itself becomes a camera, pointing at a ‘Bergman landscape’ through the glass walls of the cafe. After a series of live action performances in the public spaces of the Museum, the show moves into the main theater, which becomes a film studio, the setting for a series of sound and video experiments.<\/p>\n

Persona Performa, developed during a residency by Ming Wong at Museum of the Moving Image, will be a revelatory evening, a reflection on nothing less than the history and the nature of the moving image, and the nature of performance itself, on screen and in life.<\/p>\n

Curated by Defne Ayas for Performa.
