Tanzquartier Wien

Alix Eynaudi’s ongoing series (Im)mobility Salon is part of the project Institute of Rest(s), the choreographer’s long-term research on how to disrupt productivity through dance and its spaces of communality. In its third iteration, (Im)mobility Salon takes shape as a seven-day gathering at Volkskundemuseum Wien in an experimental library setting and plots encounters with independent publishers, poets, writers, journalists, editors and artists whose work is situated in, along and with practices of dissida/ence and refusal.

(Im)mobility Salon #3 is not an event but an organisation of and occasion to rest in collective studies, with many. Each day comprises a so-called ‘restshop’ – a workshop based on a glossary repertoire of rest practices – by Alix Eynaudi and a session hosted by a guest in the afternoon. The rest of the time is dedicated to reading (together, between words, languages and speeches), to translating (between, across and within tongues, bodies, spaces, grounds, surrounds and temporalities), to (deeply) hanging out and to doing nothing. Together.
