Black Market International
“This Is Performance Art”, Glasgow, 2011
Many have written but not enough.
"12 artists, from 9 different countries, 6 hours performance, no script, no plans, shared space and materials, no intervals.....mmm is it legal?"
- Taxi driver wondering aloud while driving us to performance space in Glasgow, 2011
Since the first time I encountered Black Market International, there have been tensions between the ones still working inside as well as those who left. There was electricity whenever we meet, live wire, sparks, never boring. Bit too much sometimes. And there have been various different versions of what it was, is about. And still going on with different claims and perhaps also different clones of it. Still going on the electricity live wire sparks have no power failure despite earthquakes or hard rain. Some say already facing menopause but anyway i leave you a brief introduction as my time is not yet come to give the full take here.
I first came to know them from Roi Vaara during "2nd NIPAF (Nippon International Performance Festival)" 1995 in Tokyo and Nagano, Japan. After meeting him in yet other festivals Roi talked to Boris Nieslony into inviting me to "Ma: East West project" in Darmstardt and Dusseldorf 1996, where I also met Jacques Van Poppel, Alastair Maclennan, Norbert Klassen, Z. Warpechowski, Nigel Rolfe. And although I never suspected that I would be invited to work with Black Market performances in future, it was an honour just to meet these guys of impeccable character. On hind sight it was a strange situation. As somehow at that stage Roi and I were heavy alcohol drinking partners but the others had moderated their alcoholic habits or even stopped totally. I guess the live wire tensions needed a balancing break sometime.
It was in Expo 2000, in Hanover, and TransEuropa -Theatre Festival 2000, Hildesheim, Germany where I had my first experience of working in performance with Black Market International. There have been changes, for some reasons, I felt like quitting but did not; JVP too. Here we have more tensions than you will wish to know. Yet we'd have been able to miraculousIy resolve the fights and disagreements, by work when in performance, we took it to new levels and it was good. That's why I stayed I guess. Cause these guys are real. I love them.
Coming from Singapore, I begin to appreciate working with them more and more over the years. Its like a reality check for me. Like T.K.Sabapathy, Singapore's veteran art historian, once said to me, "In Singapore our sense of scale gets distorted easily." I believe he was saying that to caution me to be careful as these aberrations confuse our own self-image, leading towards further delusions. The delusions may not be one's own but also how others look at us. And due the distortion may loom much larger than is. Hence leading to a situation of deluded definition made real by repetitiion of it like a mantra.

"12 artists, from 9 different countries, 6 hours performance, no script, no plans, shared space and materials, no intervals.....mmm is it legal?"
- Taxi driver wondering aloud while driving us to performance space in Glasgow, 2011
Since the first time I encountered Black Market International, there have been tensions between the ones still working inside as well as those who left. There was electricity whenever we meet, live wire, sparks, never boring. Bit too much sometimes. And there have been various different versions of what it was, is about. And still going on with different claims and perhaps also different clones of it. Still going on the electricity live wire sparks have no power failure despite earthquakes or hard rain. Some say already facing menopause but anyway i leave you a brief introduction as my time is not yet come to give the full take here.
I first came to know them from Roi Vaara during "2nd NIPAF (Nippon International Performance Festival)" 1995 in Tokyo and Nagano, Japan. After meeting him in yet other festivals Roi talked to Boris Nieslony into inviting me to "Ma: East West project" in Darmstardt and Dusseldorf 1996, where I also met Jacques Van Poppel, Alastair Maclennan, Norbert Klassen, Z. Warpechowski, Nigel Rolfe. And although I never suspected that I would be invited to work with Black Market performances in future, it was an honour just to meet these guys of impeccable character. On hind sight it was a strange situation. As somehow at that stage Roi and I were heavy alcohol drinking partners but the others had moderated their alcoholic habits or even stopped totally. I guess the live wire tensions needed a balancing break sometime.
It was in Expo 2000, in Hanover, and TransEuropa -Theatre Festival 2000, Hildesheim, Germany where I had my first experience of working in performance with Black Market International. There have been changes, for some reasons, I felt like quitting but did not; JVP too. Here we have more tensions than you will wish to know. Yet we'd have been able to miraculousIy resolve the fights and disagreements, by work when in performance, we took it to new levels and it was good. That's why I stayed I guess. Cause these guys are real. I love them.
Coming from Singapore, I begin to appreciate working with them more and more over the years. Its like a reality check for me. Like T.K.Sabapathy, Singapore's veteran art historian, once said to me, "In Singapore our sense of scale gets distorted easily." I believe he was saying that to caution me to be careful as these aberrations confuse our own self-image, leading towards further delusions. The delusions may not be one's own but also how others look at us. And due the distortion may loom much larger than is. Hence leading to a situation of deluded definition made real by repetitiion of it like a mantra.
