photos: Eva Würdinger Which group do you belong to? Current voices such as Sarah Schulman, Didier Eribon, and Hannah Gadsby ask political questions about the formation of groups in society: about marginalised groups and discrimination as well as class-induced and gender-related injustice. We need groups, of course. Identification models and feelings of belonging, understandable. Groups raise their collective voice. Demarcate and segregate themselves. The old white men rear up once more like animals before they die. Class is entirely family based. And family is a national system. Patriarchal nationalism – a fuck-off model. and and is part of a process which began with and in 2018. Its point of departure is the question of how politics, identification, and stigmatisation are created, and an artistic objection and claim against it. The material: feminist text fragments, citations from Sarah Schulman and torn-off adhesive tape. Music and plastic. Dotted, coloured bodies, bodies in and against labelings, a dotted room, sound spots. Real text, fake bodies, real bodies, connections. and and – a remix of text and sticky tape, coupled with Elise’s live sound … Concept, choreography & performance: Lisa Hinterreithner Choreography & performance: Linda Samaraweerová Composition & live music: Elise Mory Space: Otto Krause Light: Victor Duran Costume: Christina Nehrer Feedback: Chris Standfest Production: Eva Holzinger, Ela Piplits Documentation: Markus Gradwohl, Eva Würdinger A co-production by Lisa Hinterreithner and Tanzquartier Wien.

| Pink Tape – Yellow Tape – Black Tape – Repeat! Performance Open Mind Festival, Toihaus Theater, November 2017 
WUK performing arts, January 2018 
photos: Eva Würdinger A strip of adhesive tape is a singular thing, a second one next to it confirms the first one. A third one could indicate the beginning of a pattern. Patterns are created by repetition. The performance Pink Tape – Yellow Tape – Black Tape – Repeat! focuses on the processes of creation and discard of patterns, visualising them with the aid of adhesive tape. In the black box, affixed dots and line structures build up between audience and performers only to be transformed in the next moment or disappear again. In Pink Tape – Yellow Tape – Black Tape – Repeat! the live musician Elise Mory handles musical structures and repetition processes. Acoustic overlays and multilayer loops translate the visual patternings into sounds and thus musically "glue together" the performative adhesive-tape works. A foot, a head and a hand interwoven with tape. The strips interact with the bodies of the performers. Dot structures form a social tie with the onlookers, pulling them directly into the events by an almost affectionate application of adhesive tape. Everything happens in a measure of disorder; no repetition is similar to another; everything in the room might have become a pattern … Concept and creation: Lisa Hinterreithner Artistic collaboration: Lilo Nein Performance: Lisa Hinterreithner, Linda Samaraweerová, Olivia Schellander Live music: Elise Mory Costume: Lena Winkler-Hermaden Feedback: Stephanie Leonhardt Production management: Ela Piplits A production by Up. | Lisa Hinterreithner and Art Lovers in cooperation with Im_flieger / Stoffwechsel, Open Mind Festival, Toihaus Theater and WUK performing arts.

photos: SensoReye Production/Fivos Salahas In her new performance Do-Undo, artist Lisa Hinterreithner and Rotraud Kern explore the temporary trio of audience – performer – material. What happens when conditions shift, when one group gets the upper hand, another succumbs? Tin foil, blankets, dictaphones, … in Do-Undo two performers and the visitors form a speculative community; sporadic, scattered, multiplied micro-situations define the space. Between exhibition and performance situation a space for (collective) actions, adventure, uncharted territory appears. As the smallest events multiply and spread, the actual event could be anywhere. Neither spectators nor performers are able to see the “complete” performance. Do-Undo is an attempt to set the social fabric of audience and performers in motion.

| Performance series: THE CALL OF THINGS / THINGS and MEZZANIN Performance THINGS, Galerie 5020, March 2015 
 
 
 photos: Erik Hable In their performance series THE CALL OF THINGS, THINGS, and MEZZANIN the two performance artists Lisa Hinterreithner and Jack Hauser engage in the performativity of things, setting out from an artistic performance as a collaborative gathering of heterogeneous elements (humans, things, organisms, and objects). Materials, things and objects are acting next to, and performing with the two human performers as independent and collaborating or disturbing participants. In this sense, Hinterreithner and Hauser investigate the possibilities of a performance model, the human-nonhuman workgroup. They spend a lot of time with the things. They hang around and roam the rooms they selected together with the things and objects in order to get an idea of the loitering things’ vitality. The things speak up in one way or another (the call of things). Groups of ‘bodies’ (human and non-human) establish themselves in juxtaposition, mutually affecting and being affected by each other. However, Hinterreithner and Hauser themselves do not become things, but perhaps somehow thing-human. The human–nonhuman workgroups move from boiling kettles, over wet, hot items of clothing, books, human urine, a wall clock, quick-frozen trouser legs, a vacuum cleaner and television sets playing possum, even to dawn itself.

 photos: KatReynolds What happens when people and objects engage in artistic, performative complicity? To get to the bottom of this question, Lisa Hinterreithner and Jack Hauser explore parts of the Odeon theatre that usually stay hidden: under the stage, in the workshops, the store-room, the depository for costumes and props – the mezzanine. A mysterious transformation takes place there: the objects become alive, and the living performers take on an object-like quality. Both sides come together in their states of materiality. They become a human/non-human working group that generates exceptional assemblages.

| Automatisch Idiotisch - als ob - genau Performance Sommer SZENE, Salzburg, June 2014 
 
photos: SZENE Salzburg/Bernhard Müller "Geh in die Scule und lass die socken tanzen; gib mir deine hand damit es nicht zu regenne beginnt. Das warten macht immer sinn. Der strohkopf ist ein druckwampier und ietatsache dass du spinnst ist eine kleinigkeit die mich nicht kümmert ...“ Lisa Hinterreithner writes automatic texts and completes these with automatic speech, dance and weeping. Julius Deutschbauer approaches her automatic creation like an explorer and extracts categories from it: desperation to madness, father/mother/child to sex, dry ice to farting machines. From this emerges, almost by itself, a show made up of attractions and performances somewhere between the automatic and the machine-like, car-driven planchette, recorder of souls and Werner-is-Dead keyboards. automatisch – idiotisch – als ob – genau sees itself in the first part of the evening as a self-driven performance and in the second part as a mechanical installation to be played by the audience.

| Posters Installation Open Mind Festival, November 2012 
 
 photos: Nils Olger POSTERS is a continuation of the project Watch! The Poster Show. Both projects collect performances by different performance artists who choreograph for the two-dimensional surface of a poster rather than the stage: Compositional and choreographic action applied to a flat surface. Performance, documentation, and archiving in one = Performance Poster. Only an empty wall is necessary for the performance, or, as Julius Deutschbauer puts it: “Four strips of tape are enough to perform it!" Cheeky Theatre stages are problematic spatial construction sites for contemporary art, and they eat up lots of economic resources. A historicised, inflexible, costly framing for 21st century performing art. An alternative: choreographing on a sheet of paper. Posters partakes in the change of the theatre, understands itself as a choreographic departure. Posters is a plea for choreographic acting conscious of the crisis not only of the theatre, but in the face of current close-downs of cultural institutions all over Europe. Shift of playing areas Choreographers shift their playing area to paper, inscribing performances on posters. An intriguing act of overcoming thinking in movements which experiments with the special complicity between performance and audience. Exercising the impossible. Experimenting, acting as if; there are no limits to choreographic thinking and acting. Gaining freedom through a change of practice. Producing singularly in community – the poster workshop A facility for the design and production of poster performances. It is a quick, singular fabrication that happens in a group or in being-with-others. A lab-research-production format. Staging of the posters and bodies in three-dimensional space – the presentation The poster workshop is equally exhibition and performance site. Traces of the artistic process will remain in it, tools, dances, texts and pictures; glue, scissors, the performances, the posters. The audience is invited not only to experience the posters, but also materials of the poster workshop and live actions by the artists.

| Here you are Site-specific installation at Kapuzinerberg Sommer SZENE Salzburg, July 2011 
 photos: Paul Wenninger, Daniel Zimmermann No other city has, in its center, such lush, picture-perfect natural beauty; no other city has Kapuzinerberg. A long, steep path helps you relax and slow down. Then it takes you into the forest. Friendly and peaceful yet mysterious, Kapuzinerberg is a place to contemplate, to hide; a secret jungle almost forgotten in the midst of the hustle and bustle of Salzburg. There, your senses are stimulated as they take in the intersection of different views: of the distance, of the city, of the mountains and the details of the flora. Here You Are is an installation which expands these horizons and puts completely new views in them. It manipulates reality, implies associations, and gives free rein to the imagination. The artists' instrument is the telescope which allows them to create additional worlds and set free the creativity of the viewer.

| Watch! The Poster Show Installation Kabinett Salzburger Kunstverein, February 2011 
 
photos: Roland Rauschmeier Watch! The Poster Show collects performances by different artists who choreograph for the two-dimensional surface of a poster rather than the stage. Five artists design performances in poster format. The pieces will be exhibited together in the Salzburger Kunstverein's Cabinet as a premiere and can then be purchased online. Five choreographers transfer the stage to paper and inscribe performances on posters. A delightful breakthrough in thoughts on movement takes place that experiments with an unusual complicity between performance and onlookers.

| Tree me tree Performance Tanzquartier Wien, Studios, January 2010 
 
 Fotos © Nils Olger The spaces in which the actors in Tree me Tree move are multiple. Remembered, just happening or medially constructed, in the work of the choreographers indoors and outdoors, natural and stage space, here and there, windows and view openings, standpoints and perspectives, details and excerpts overlap and interpenetrate. In the confrontation of choreographic and film material, in the negotiation of presence and absence, the artists interweave experienced stories and turn the stage into a place of ever new relationships of demarcations and connections, of attribution and belonging.

| Biography In her works, the artist and performer Lisa Hinterreithner interlaces bodies and materials. She explores experimental performance formats which focus on questions regarding representation and participation, often connecting the audience, performers, and objects in shared processes. Contextually, her performances are located at the interface of choreography and visual art. Lisa Hinterreithner has worked with Julius Deutschbauer, Jack Hauser, Rotraud Kern, Elise Mory, Laura Navndrup Black, Lilo Nein, Martina Ruhsam, Linda Samaraweerová, and others. With Low Bodies (premiered in September, 2019) she started her current investigation of lying/horizontal bodies. 2018–19 she developed the performances and as well as and and (Tanzquartier Wien Studios and others), remixes of text and sticky tape, in which questions of identity policy mix with dotted spaces and bodies in, and against labelling. Pink Tape – Yellow Tape – Black Tape – Repeat! (2017 Open Mind Festival, Salzburg; 2018 WUK performing arts, Vienna) focusses on the processes of creation and discarding of patterns, visualising them with the aid of adhesive tape. In the performance Do-Undo (2017 Galerie 5020, Salzburg; ImPulsTanz – Vienna International Dance Festival) Lisa Hinterreithner and Rotraud Kern explore the temporary trio of audience, performer, and material. In 2014–15 together with Jack Hauser she developed the performance series The Call of Things / Things (Tanzquartier Wien; Galerie 5020, Salzburg; ACF London amongst others) as well as the performance Mezzanin (ImPulsTanz – Vienna International Dance Festival). Hinterreithner and Hauser engage in the performativity of things, setting out from an artistic performance as a collaborative gathering of heterogeneous elements. In 2014 together with Martina Ruhsam she created the work A scripted situation (2015 Tanzquartier Wien and others), a performance where there are no dedicated spectators, since all the participants are equally onlookers and performers. From 2006 to 2008 Lisa Hinterreithner was Head of the Training and Workshop Department at Tanzquartier Wien under the direction of Sigrid Gareis. In 2014 she taught Performance at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna. She teaches performance and research at SEAD (Salzburg Experimental Academy of Dance), at the Music and Arts University of the City of Vienna and at the Danish National School for Performing Arts in Copenhagen. Since 2007 she has been curating the research platform tanzbuero together with Elfi Eberhard. Also in 2014 she did her master’s (MRes) in Performance and Creative Research at Roehampton University/ London. Download CV |
