Joan Jonas | “Out Takes. What The Storm Washed In“

“I find the work through action, I do write ideas down, but the work comes from working it out in a live situation.” – Joan Jonas

On 13.11.22, the European premiere of Joan Jonas’ poetic performance “Out Takes. What The Storm Washed In“ took place at Haus der Kunst, performed by the artist herself and Lucy Mullican, with a composition by Ikue Mori.

Echoing the exhibition, the artist continued her crucial negotiation of the relationship between nature and humanity with this performance. The filmic sequences projected on the screen were recorded in different landscapes over the last 30 years and dedicated to the ecosystems of the forest and the sea.
