10 posts for 10 years of Vincent Gambini

N.1

Before Gambini was a chance invitation, in 2013, to contribute to a 5-day event in Berlin, exploring magic and performance art (info & links below).
At this point in time I knew that magic and performance art didn’t go together, or so I adamantly thought: 13 years prior I had gotten rid of all my magic props, and told myself I was done with tricks.
I travelled to Berlin anyway, and developed something like a performance-lecture about misdirection. To my great surprise, magic COULD work within a performance art context. I was also amazed at how much my body remembered the sleight-of-hand movements that I’d spent my teens practicing endlessly: I later reflected on this type of body memory in the essay ‘Autobiography of hands’.

The event ‘Hermetic Garden’ was curated by Joern J. Burmester and Florian Feigl, at Sophinesaele, Berlin.
