Anne Imhof and Eliza Douglas Reunite for DOOM Duet at Performa Fundraiser
Anne Imhof and Eliza Douglas reunited on stage for the first time since their breakup at Performa's 'Variety Show' fundraiser in Midtown Manhattan. Their performance, 'For Real,' is an adaptation of Imhof's DOOM and premiered last year at the Park Avenue Armory. The two artists initially met in Frankfurt back in 2015 and have collaborated on several projects, such as Angst at Kunsthalle Basel in 2016 and Faust at the Venice Biennale in 2017. Imhof is now in a relationship with dancer Devon Teuscher, and they are planning a larger project for 2028 in Europe. In other news, the Upstate Art Weekend featured Jeremy Nedd's Slidin' Thru, while Chris Sharp's Post-Fair will take place in Paris from October 19–25. The Balloon Museum will open on July 15 in New York's former Tin Building, showcasing works by Marina Abramović and Martin Creed.
