Modern People Baden 

Site-specific explorations – Open, Mindful, Permeable – Radical Tenderness

Modern People is a hyperlocal, manual-algorithm-based performance series and an attempt to analyse society as an organism, and in particular its material excretions and waste, in order to gain insights into its state of health, comparable to a coprological examination. 

Elke Auer und Daniel Hafner embark on a search for physical and intellectual spaces and through a playful process, place freely accessible material and immaterial resources in new social relations and make them sensually experienceable.

Performances
12.6. and 13.6.2026

Details coming soon.

The performances are part of the programme Ephemeral Forms of Presence. It unfolds as a five-part experimental exhibition. Through performance, it focuses on moments when art is not something to be displayed, but something to be lived. At its core lies the question of what happens when a work resists permanence, when art dissolves as an event — no longer visible, yet still felt: as a shared act of remembering, as a fleeting trace that exists only within the experience itself.
