Chloe Bass' Tea Will Be Served at Neuberger Museum, Purchase, NY on March 5

Chloe Bass. Tea Will Be Served, at Apage Enterprise, December 18, 2011 

Performance Artist, Chloe Bass will mediate her work Tea Will be Served at the Neuberger Museum on Wednesday, March 5, 4:30 to 6:30 pm. To participate, please contact the Neuberger Museum at nma.education@neuberger.org

Ms. Bass explains: "Tea Will Be Served primarily addressed the relationship between expectations and reality. Through a series of relatively normal behaviors turned on their heads, the performance explored how making strange can illuminate both the moment itself and our understanding of the everyday. The performance also aimed to make guests, rather than the artist, the central featured performers, generating the “watched” content for themselves as they experienced it. The artist served only as mediator and guide."

Who wouldn't want to have a cuppa with the lovely Ms. Bass and company?  A rare opportunity to be part of a performance piece.  Bravo!
