Sebastian Blasius: Absent Wolves

# living together

Performance

The performance project by Sebastian Blasius experimented with new forms of the collective and nomadic and included the voices of Düsseldorf citizens.

Voices from Düsseldorf's urban society met nomadic practices met instructions for wolf hunting. We have become accustomed to the absent wolves as a result of their deliberate extermination: with the settling of man, the wolf was declared our competitor. Cut off from its natural hunting grounds, it invaded the man-made order, helped itself to the livestock. Who, on the other hand, could we be if we had developed a different, non-dominant relationship to our environment in which the wolf could also coexist?

The performance project experimented with new forms of the collective and nomadic and included the voices of Düsseldorf citizens: What alternative ways of being in the world are imaginable for them? What is life like without wolves?

The project was designed as an installation; spectators were free to choose when to come and go between 11 am and 4 pm.
