Since 2003, the ACT Performance Festival of Swiss Art Academies has offered students a platform to realize performances and performative projects. After its 20th anniversary edition in spring 2022 in Biel/Bienne, the festival will once again stop in various cities in Switzerland this year—as it did before and afterwards. Conceived as an open laboratory for testing performative artistic strategies, the dynamic between performances, performers and the audience that accompanies the live situation is of central importance to ACT. The focus is on the process and the exchange between the students and the audience.

This year, ACT Basel will take place at L'avventura, an interim use location on the ninth floor of the former post building at close distance to Basel's main station.

ACT is a joint project of Swiss Art Academies: 
EDHEA Valais – F+F Zurich – HEAD Geneva – HGK Basel FHNW – HKB Bern – HSLU D&K Lucerne – ZHdK Zurich
