For Thomas Putze, performance is a snapshot of a moment, a play on
possibilities, and at the same time a well-planned and
sophisticated act to captivate the onlooker. Yet above all, it is
thinking, drawing, sculpting, and realising with and through the
body, which he treats just as relentlessly as all the other
materials in his works. He swings through trees, occupies church
facades, and submerges himself in mud; frequently without clothing
or scantily wrapped in plastic sheeting, he gauges and challenges
the physical and thus social space between us bystanders. Thomas
Putze typifies the risk of being human, with all its failings and
plenty of humour. He not only holds us to account but rather
invites us to do this ourselves: to partake in art and to reflect
on the performance we call life. Text in English and German.
