@XPACE
303 Augusta Ave.
Toronto, Ontario
Fado is proud to present TIME ZONES, an artist
residency project with internationally acclaimed
Cuban artists Glenda León and Tania Bruguera.
Organized by artist/curator Tagny Duff, Time
Zones will offer León and Bruguera the chance to
create new works that further their reflections
and engagement with time, the commute in-between
citizenship and nationhood, and the flight
between corporeal and virtual spaces. Bruguera
and León begin the residency in Montreal as part
of the 6th Mois de la Performance, hosted by La
Centrale , followed by two weeks in Toronto under
the auspices of Fado and sponsored by the Ontario
College of Art and Design in conjunction with the
7a*11d International Festival of Performance Art.
About VIGILANTES -the dream of reason creates monsters-
For VIGILANTES, Bruguera will commute weekly
between Chicago and Canada (first to Montreal and
then to Toronto), using these trips as an
opportunity to perform for the unsuspecting
audience of her fellow travelers. She will also
present unannounced performance actions in
Toronto.
In conjunction with the residency, Bruguera will
produce a booklet that compiles images and
experiences associated with the project,
including the texts of four talks that she will
present (two in Montreal and two in Toronto).
Each talk will visit a text by one of the
following performance artists:
1- Allan Kaprow
2- Adrian Piper
3- Vito Acconci
4- Francys Alys
Bruguera describes the work in this way:
VIGILANTES -the dream of reason creates monsters-
will be a series of performances dealing with the
relationship between ethics and desire; with the
tension that can be found in a state of emotional
vigilia, which is the state between being awake
and asleep. Each piece will have several layers
of appreciation, either from the position of the
audience or of their level of boldness. These
will be pieces that talk about the false strength
and the hidden fragility.
About EVERY STEP IS A SHAPE OF TIME
For the Toronto portion of her residency, León
will develop a new audio-based performative
installation called Every Step is a Shape of
Time. The piece premieres at OCAD on October 29.
This work invites the public to create individual
and collective aural experiences generated in the
lag time between walking and listening.
León writes:
Every step we make is a small yet important
instant in our lives. The direction, the speed,
the decision to make one step or a sequence of
them can take us to certain events or move us
away from them. The sound amplification of this
daily act is a way to make us reflect upon and
notice infinite possibilities sculpted through
time. Listening to our own footsteps is
metaphorically linked to the act of listening to
ourselves. Where are we going? How are we walking
on this path we have chosen? In fact, have we
chosen this path we are walking? I believe these
are questions worth asking, however, they are
ones not easily answered.

Létourneau, So-Yeon Park, and Jed Speare
All events Free
Eric Létourneau - STANDARD III
October 21, 2004, 9:30 pm (approx - following other 7a*11d performances)
XPACE, 303 Augusta Ave.
Performance followed by a discussion with Eric Létourneau
Presented in conjunction with the 5th 7a*11d
International Festival of Performance Art
Eric Létourneau's "manoeuvre" STANDARD III began
as a two-hour uninterrupted nationwide radio
broadcast on Radio-Canada on April 11, 2004
(Easter). The program featured 198 30-second
periods of radio silence punctuated by an
alphabetical listing of every country in the
world. The same phrase introduced each silence:
"Thirty seconds of silence for domestic and
foreign political victims..." This broadcast was
recorded live off the airwaves and remixed for
publication on two CDs along with a text that
considers the effects of administrative
regulation and State control on mass media.
Beginning in October 2004, copies of the
publication will be sent through diplomatic
channels to each country of the world. On the
occasion of each country's national celebration,
its head of state will be contacted to verify the
receipt and subsequent response to the CD. This
process and the reactions it generates will be
recorded on the websites of Fado Performance
Inc.and Systeme Minuit (
http://www.systememinuit.com ). The documentation
collected, including all diplomatic
correspondence, will eventually be published in
book form.

presented in conjunction with the 7a*11d Int'l Festival of Performance Art
So-Yeon Park - INTER-FAITH CHANTING
Project postponed to January, 2005
This series considers acts of "listening" as they
are carried out by and impact upon physical,
social, political and spiritual bodies. Linda Rae
Dornan presents herself as a solitary figure,
sitting quietly in the city, listening --
encouraging us to also stop for a moment to hear
what we normally ignore. Erika DeFreitas offers
her presence for a one-on-one exercise of
listening as a way of locating the self. Jed
Speare lobbies the city for a quiet zone that
would serve as an area of sound awareness.
So-Yeon Park assembles chanters from various
cultures to direct their voices toward individual
participants' wishes as a way of channeling
transformative energy. Eric Létourneau evokes
silence as a way of marking and remembering all
of the world's victims of political persecution
in a multi-layered project that interrogates the
role of the State and of mass media in silencing
"silence" itself.
Travel support for this series comes from the New
Brunswick Arts Board and the University of Kansas.

Admission: $3/night
We're baaaaack. Toronto's only international
performance art festival opens on October 20 for
12 jam-packed days of progressive and provocative
new performance works, interactive experiences,
exhibitions, artist talks, panel discussions, our
d2d (direct to documentation) video program, a
publication launch and other surprise events. For
our fifth full-scale festival -- still grassroots
but more ambitious than ever -- we offer up a
stellar list of live performances by established
and emerging contemporary artists from the UK,
Spain, Finland, Indonesia, the Philippines,
Chile, Cuba, the USA and across Canada.
Produced by a not-for-profit collective of
artists since 1997, 7a*11d's purpose is to offer
a professional showcase for performance works
that fall outside the traditional boundaries of
established genres (theatre, dance, music etc.).
We are dedicated to representing a wide range of
work, and are committed to presenting both the
breadth and depth of performance art as a genre.
Improvisors, peace-makers, trouble-takers,
noise-makers, infiltrators, disseminators,
cogitators ... and mess-makers ... will all be in
evidence at this year's festival, from the
thoughtful activism of Cheryl l"Hirondelle,
Reverend Billy and Mideo M. Cruz to the wry
humour of Joanne Bristol, John Marriott or Esther
Ferrer. From the Toronto premiere of the
world-touring Compagnie PME's "Unrehearsed
Beauty" (directed by Toronto experimental theatre
veteran Jacob Wren) to Tamara Paris and Matt
Fontaine's durational mediation on "The Art of
Sexual Home Improvement", from the intensity of
Melati Suryodarmo's EXERGY -- butter dance to the
surreal improvisations of Songs of the New
Erotics, 7a*11d presents works that suggest the
limitless possibilities of performance.
