Performance | The Movers, Tate Modern, February 2, 2013
January 17, 2013
The Movers is a performance conceived in collaboration between Carlos Motta and choreographer Matthias Sperling. The work attends to movement as a means of exploring the connections between collective politics and a sense of the individual. Based on a choreographic score of performative tasks that engage thirteen performers in individual decision-making processes, The Movers abstractly asks how self-determination is both a deeply personal project and continuously negotiated in relation to others.
Performers: Ingo Andersson—Wotever World, Jason Barker, Dan Daw, Simon Foxall, Liang Huai-Chih, Nia Hughes, Jamila Johnson Small, Roz Kaveney, Helka Kaski, Vicky Malin, Malinda Mukuma, Carlos Maria Romero and Mickel Smithen & Ebony Rose Dark.

Symposium | Gender Talents: A Special Address, Tate Modern, February 2, 2013
January 17, 2013
Gender Talents: A Special Address, convened by Carlos Motta, presents an international group of thinkers, activists, and artists in a symposium that uses the proposition or manifesto as a structuring device and starting point for discussion. These ‘special addresses’ will explore models and strategies that transform the ways in which society perversely defines and regulates bodies. The event seeks to ask what is at stake when collapsing, inverting or abandoning the gender binary. Here the relation between self-determination and solidarity in processes of systemic change form the foundation of a pragmatic, but also euphoric exploration of ways of being ungoverned by normative gender.
With Xabier Arakistain, Esben Esther Pirelli Benestad, Giuseppe Campuzano, J. Jack Halberstam, Carlos Motta, Beatriz Preciado, Dean Spade, Terre Thaemlitz, Wu Tsang, Del LaGrace Volcano and Campbell X.
