Juan Manuel Outon visited a number of during Deliverance in Berlin, and at its conclusion, he took these photographs of the material items we lived by. I think he wanted to call the photographs something like “and the artists survived.” There were many more images, but they were casualties to a hard-drive crash.
Here are seven days of Deliverance in Berlin, in under seven minutes. Recorded in time-lapse, you can see the great volume of visitors, the Sisyphean daily task of packing up and laying out our space, day turning into city-lit night, and the gradual accumulation of objects.
Thank you, Platoon Kunsthalle!

…The group now has the chance to take its performance to the mecca of alternative art, Berlin. Leaving tomorrow, they are among the first to receive a residency with the Centre for Art and Urbanistics, where they will workshop Deliverance before performing and documenting it, using time-lapse photography and possibly a live web stream.
“You can’t imagine any city creating the same space as the one before,” says Harpham. “That’s what is so exciting and challenging for us.”

“IAmA Performance Artist…” If you use reddit, I am conducting an IAmA-AMA about Deliverance, Berlin, et al. I am on Australian EST, but am a night owl. I will be there frequently over the next 48 hours.

“Thinking back to the Adelaide Fringe Festival in Summer, is there anything that particularly stood out? Perhaps it was a comedy act, perhaps it was a theatre production…but what about the things that didn’t quite fit into a neat, high-production package? What about the quirky and the thought-provoking?
Gluttony in Rymill Park had something pretty special going on…
It was Deliverance – a durational piece where three performers entered and stayed in a 6 x 5 metre outdoor space for 10 days.
They initially were naked with absolutely no possessions.
So what happened over the 240 hour piece? Did passersby help them out?

Deliverance is going to Berlin!
In August, Penny, Kat and Will will join the inaugural residency program from ZK/U: Zentrum für Kunst und Urbanistik/Centre for Art and Urbanistics. In Berlin, we will re-perform Deliverance, and develop the work to prepare it for presentation across the world. It is very exciting news.
