While director-curators Jill McDermid-Hokanson and Eric Hokensen occupy downtown Manhattan, PPL invites performance artists and performance-makers to occupy Grace Space. The assembled body, curated from the streets, from craigslist, from arts social networks, and by word-of-mouth as well as from Grace Exhibition Space and PPL�s rosters of well-known artists, will be provided with lights, sound, running water, a formalized public platform, and the context of "performance art" by one of the world's best-known performance art spaces. After the show, artists and attendees may decide go down to Zucotti Park to experiment with what kind of spectrum exists between "art" performance and �political� performance, and to continue exploration of what performance artists can do to break out of a sense of autonomy and truly participate in public culture.

Opened in 2006, Grace Exhibition Space is devoted exclusively to Performance Art. We offer an opportunity to experience visceral and challenging works by the current generation of international performance artists whether emerging, mid-career or established. Our events are presented on the floor, not on a stage, dissolving the boundary between artist and viewer. This is how performance art is meant to be experienced and our mission is the glorification of performance art.
Grace Exhibition Space presents over 30 curated live performance art exhibitions each year, showcasing new work by more than 400 performance artists from across the United States and the world since 2006.
