During the inauguration of LONG PLAY, an installation by world-renowned artist Pascale Marthine Tayou, creative director Alex Akuete, working in collaboration with urban.brussels and the Art & History Museum, translated the artwork into an engaging, audience-centered performance at Parc du Cinquantenaire, in front of the Pavillon des Passions humaines (Human Passions Pavilion). Joined by talented dancers the performance activated the space through movement and embodied interpretation, offering visitors a dynamic and immersive way to experience and interact with the installation.
Rooted in artistic research, the performance transformed LONG PLAY into a living, evolving experience. It opened up new perspectives on Tayou’s work and invited audiences of all ages to engage with its themes in an accessible, meaningful, and participatory manner.
