TIPA is curated by Nikki Milican OBE and will run from the 29-31 October 2015. The event will include performances in the main Peacock gallery, Aberdeen City Centre, as well as workshops, film screenings and opportunities to meet the artists and hear them discuss their work.
This edition’s roster of performance artists, many of whom are visiting Scotland for the very first time, are social, political, and always questioning, with the aim of inspiring viewers to explore performance art beyond TIPA.
TIPA’s global roster includes Sinéad O’Donnell, Nigel Rolfe, VestAndPage, Ilija Šoškić, with Dragica Cakic, Wladyslaw Kamierczak & Ewa Rybska, who are all highly acclaimed artist within the field of performance art.
