madness #17: „transgression“ is all about the burning desire for breaking taboos, edging with the ugly and disgust, the carnivalesque letting off of steam, cathartic expenditure, the rejection of norms and the subversive potential of performance, play and humour.
Taboos and norms are society’s tools to install order. We see eroticism as a deeply rooted desire for the transgression of norms and taboos. Thus art – with its power of questioning and deconstructing – becomes a somewhat erotic practice. This inspires us to invite artists with different backgrounds and practices to perform and exhibit throughout a night of madness celebrating the lustful act of transgression, teasing all our senses and aiming at catharsis.
