SUMMARY:Ivana Dama: A Performance and Conversation
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a live performance by artist Ivana Dama\, presented alongside her installation Breathing Alarms\, now on view in the East German guardhouse in the Wende Museum garden. \nAt the center of Breathing Alarms is a custom air-raid siren powered not by machinery but by human breath. Visitors’ inhalations and exhalations generate the siren’s sound and set in motion an animation of birds inside an aluminum zoetrope. The work transforms a device built for monitoring and protection into a responsive instrument\, one that only sounds through shared physical presence. \nFor this program\, Dama presents a live performance drawn from her ongoing research into air-raid sirens. The performance is followed by a conversation between the artist and Chief Curator Joes Segal. \nBorn and raised in Belgrade\, former Yugoslavia\, and now based in New York\, Dama investigates alarm signals across social and natural systems\, from the absence of birdsong as a warning sign to the role of sirens in marking ecological\, political\, and social concerns. \nBreathing Alarms is on view through October 11\, 2026. The installation is made possible by the generous support of the David Bermant Foundation\, and developed in collaboration with the MIT Center for Bits and Atoms.
