POUSH Paris

Opening: Wednesday, November 12 — 4–9 PM

Performance — Félix Touzalin | 16:00–20:00 (durational; drop-in / drop-out welcome)

Curators Talk — Yvannoé Kruger (Director of POUSH, Paris) with Vera Grillmaier (NeverAtHome) | 20:00

Performance: Ecstatic Measure (Félix Touzalin)
„Ecstatic Measure“ explores a single movement repeated over four hours to Erik Satie’s Vexations (840 iterations of a 16-bar score), opening an experience of expanded time and transformed perception. The performer is gradually wrapped in aluminum strips, an embodied echo of the piano’s absent yet central strings. Presented as a homage on Satie’s death anniversary.

The performance is continuous across 16:00–20:00, audiences may arrive and leave at any time.

Curators Talk
The talk between Vera Grillmaier (NeverAtHome) and Yvannoé Kruger (POUSH) addresses site-specific curation and the structure of independent art spaces in Europe. POUSH (founded 2020) combines an art center with 270+ studios for artists from 30+ countries, based in Aubervilliers and expanding in late 2025 to Parc des Portes de Paris as an “archipelago” across Seine-Saint-Denis. Under Kruger’s direction, POUSH operates as a production site and experimental curatorial platform with public programming, mentorship, and support.
