LIVEPAINTING AND MORE

THE IDEA

Bringing painting into a direct exchange with the other arts.

Art becomes experienceable in an unusual way in a joint performance of the visual artist Janus Hochgesand with other artists, for example, the concert violinist Danae Papamatthäou or the actress Lisa Wolfert. The artist creates an abstract painting on a canvas of several square metres in size to the sounds of chamber music or a poem.
