Tehching Hsieh, One Year Performance

From October 16 to November 22, 2009. DHC/ART Foundation for Contemporary Art presents DHC SESSION, a new compact autumn programming initiative including an exhibition, evening event series and in-gallery reading lounge and education project. It has an annually changing theme and features Canadian premieres of international artists.

The inaugural DHC SESSION exhibition, Living time, brings together selected documentation of renowned Taiwanese-American performance artist Tehching Hsieh’s One Year Performances and the films of young Dutch artist, Guido van der Werve. Both artists perform and document mundane activities such as walking, standing or following a schedule within constraints that question the human relationship with time and the nature of existence and survival.
