Perforations - week of live art is a collaboration project between arts organisations in the Balkans with the
goal to improve production and presenting conditions for artists from this region by initiating co-

Europe presenting a mixture of young and emerging, as well as more established artists.
This project will contribute to empowerment of performance artists from the region and establish new
models of partnerships between them and different organisations dedicated to presenting contemporary
work. Perforations will in this way ensure creative space focused on the productions and interactions
between the artists and arts organisations across the Balkans. After this first event, Perforations will work
towards widening the partner base in the region but also focus on a wider international search for
potential partners, ensuring more possibility to co-produce and present an even more diverse spectrum of
artists.

ACT ART 7 - Children of the Damned
Event Website: www.actart.co.uk
Location:
London, UK
Venue / Organiser: Act Art (www.actart.co.uk)
Information:
Over 100 artists performing.
Venue: Hidden, 100 Tinworth St., Vauxhall, London SE11 5EQ
(3 min's from Vauxhall tube/ train station on the South Bank side of the River Thames directly opposite
Tate Britain)
The 7th annual ACT ART event CHILDREN OF THE DAMNED addresses 'DIFFERENCE'.
What is it that makes us different?
What does being ‘normal’ or ‘different’ really mean?
Does the way a person looks or acts define them as ‘different’?
Or is it more routed in what is considered to be the ‘norm’ by the majority?
Do we really embrace difference?
Or is it merely tolerated or accepted because of equal opportunities and human rights? Making up the
masses are those whose instincts are to conform and go with the crowd.
