This event has ended.

"Acting the Words is Enacting the World" is a two week-long experiment in radical modes of education. Working with a group of young people aged 16-20, Truong and Ngo will conduct a series of intensive workshops that explore the economy from a perspective of philosophy, history, and art. This project approaches collaborative art-making and radical education through Augusto Boal's theater techniques, using performance as a mode of knowledge transfer through an activation of spectators as actors.

With this experiment, EFA Project Space begins a series of projects built around the concept of the Artist/Organizer. This concept will highlight individuals' behaviors of organization that pioneer the evolution of our creative landscape.
