In this presentation, David Levine will discuss how a 2004 trip to Berlin’s Volksbuehne led him to conspiracy theories about the transformation of performance into spectatorship, spectatorship into surveillance, and surveillance into transcendence.

David Levine is an artist living in New York and Berlin. His work incorporates video, photography, performance, and theater, and has been seen at MoMA, Mass MOCA, and KW Institute for Contemporary Art (Berlin).  His work has been featured in Artforum, Frieze, and the New York Times, and his writing has appeared in Parkett, Mousse, and Cabinet. He recently directed an opera about the pop group Milli Vanilli.
