Walking Art / Walking Aesthetics
The website https://walkingart.interartive.org is a digital platform dedicated to the exploration of walking as an artistic and cultural practice. It serves as an archive and resource hub that documents various walking art projects, events, and research. The site features detailed descriptions, visual documentation, and theoretical reflections on walking art, highlighting its interdisciplinary nature and its intersections with performance, sound, mapping, and urban exploration. The platform aims to facilitate knowledge exchange among artists, researchers, and audiences interested in the cultural and artistic dimensions of walking. In addition to its archival function, the website offers access to curated collections of walking artworks and narrations, contextualizing them within broader geographic and social frameworks. It provides users with tools to navigate and understand the significance of walking within contemporary art discourses and cultural geography. By situating walking practices in relation to place, memory, and perception, the platform emphasizes the role of movement and spatial experience in shaping artistic expression and cultural identity.
HERE
HERE (the Harvard Experimental Research Ensemble) is a multidisciplinary arts organization that focuses on the intersection of urban environments, performance, and public space. Founded in 1993 and based in New York City, HERE produces original theater, dance, and multimedia performances that often explore social, political, and spatial themes through experimental forms. The organization emphasizes site-specific and immersive works that engage audiences outside traditional theater settings, drawing attention to the ways environments shape cultural and individual experiences. Moreover, HERE collaborates with a diverse range of artists, including emerging and established voices from various disciplines, fostering innovative artistic practices that challenge conventional narratives. Its projects frequently incorporate live music, technology, and visual art to create hybrid performances that reflect contemporary urban realities. As a research-driven institution, HERE supports artistic experimentation and critical inquiry into the relationship between space, identity, and storytelling.

“In these large-scale drawings, realized through performance on a stage, in a gallery, or in the privacy of the studio, signs written on the body through dance training, memory and improvisation, take the form of pictorial signs motivated by gestures traced on the page. In the It’s a Draw series, the ground of drawing, paper, which is horizontal to the floor, becomes vertical when installed on a wall, a situation that recalls conditions Brown considered fundamental when shifting her work to the proscenium stage with its perpendicular and horizontal frames of floor and stage. The motivation of matter by physicality echoes in relation to artistic traditions encompassing Jackson Pollock’s “action painting,” Yves Klein’s anthropometries, 1950s–1960s performance, as well as sculpture and video concerned with the body’s phenomenological experience and with process.” Susan Rosenberg for the ‘Trisha Brown Drawing on Land and Air” exhibition brochure
