This is Out Of Site

Out Of Site is a series of live art that provides a platform for artists to create innovative new performative work in public spaces. Out Of Site offers the general public the opportunity to experience an exciting and challenging form of contemporary art practice. Out of site presents the possibility to re-experience urban Dublin through a series of live art performances in public spaces throughout the city.

Out Of Site was set up by Michelle Browne in 2006 to bring about the creation of new performative work, while bringing it to the reach of a wider audience than the traditional gallery goer. In 2006 Out Of Site presented 16 performances over 16 days as part of The Dublin Fringe Festival. In 2007 Out Of Site presented a day of events in Dublin's Rathmines areas part of the Rathmines Arts festival. Later that year a group or emerging Dublin based artists represented Ireland at On the Road to Europe, a gathering of artists from the EU member states in Berlin to celebrate the German presidency of the EU in 2007. In August 2007 Out Of Site presented a five day festival of performances in Dublin city. The festival featured work by Irish and international artists which was presented across the city.

Performance art creates vigorous, unexpected human contact that explores our condition in contemporary society. Out Of Site embraces chance encounters and outcomes, and relishs and revels in the unexpected and the spontaneous.
