Not to scale. Fuori scala

Since 1999, Ant Hampton has explored a strategy of guiding peοple through unrehearsed performance situations. This developed to include the audience themselves – a strand of work that became known as Autoteatro, most often involving small-scale and intimate formats (Etiquette, The Quiet Volume). Not to Scale is Ant Hampton’s third Autoteatro collaboration with Tim Etchells. In more recently years his practice has expanded into a wider investigation of radical trust and risk-taking (The Thing, with Christophe Meierhans). In 2023 he will launch a new performance publication imprint, Time Based Editions, mixing print, audio and participation. Tim Etchells is a British artist and writer. He has worked in a wide variety of contexts, most notably as leader of the world-renowned performance group Forced Entertainment and in collaboration with a range of visual artists, choreographers and photographers. His work spans performance, video, photography, text projects and installation. He is currently a professor of performance and writing at Lancaster University. Tim Etchells' works have been represented in numerous international galleries and appeared at Manifesta 7 (Italy, 2008), Gothenburg Biennale (Sweden, 2009), October Salon Belgrade (Serbia, 2010) and Aichi Triennale (Japan, 2010).
