Degenerate Art Ensemble


On Thursday we had visitors from the Degenerate Art Ensemble who shared information about their combined efforts of using music, art, and performance to create a performance production.  Their productions are a collaboration of many people from each genre to create a final work of art.
I was especially interested in how the costumes they showed us made noises and sounds that were incorporated into the overall piece.  I also liked how the clothing (art pieces) that was worn impacted what the actors and actresses could or could not do.  The ability to freely move about was constrictive at times.  Clothing that we wear in our day to day lives is simple compared to the nature of the art worn in their productions.  Some pieces were limiting in movement.
