In the frame of Life Long Burning / Creative Crossroads platform 4th year funded by the Creative Europe Programme of the European Union, Alex Mirutziu will work on a new multimedia project entitled LIMP CAPITAL.

Currently in residence at Workshop Foundation, Budapest (April 8-28, 2024), his next presentation of intent will take place on April 24, 7pm at the headquarters of Workshop Foundation (1094 Budapest, Liliom street 41).

Workshop Foundation was founded in 1992 with the aim of providing support for independent artists, encouraging their artistic development in order to facilitate the development of the Hungarian contemporary dance scene as a whole. Its main strategic objective is the encouragement of border-crossing – both geographically and among artistic disciplines.

At this time the artist is rehearsing in the facilities offered by Trafo House of Contemporary Arts in Budapest.

Alex Mirutziu is the artist selected for a 2-year support and development programme as part of the Creative Crossroads project Life Long Burning (LLB) - Futures Lost and Found.

LIMP CAPITAL operates within protocol events. It lays claim to the mind-fuck-be-your-embarrassing attitude of the operator, where speech is drooling, where speech is fetish.

The operator subscribes to no impulse, no fact, opting to turn off their brain and reinforce the subtle capital of ignorance. Its jump-cut structure advocates for the looser-self, for dance without analysis. The body becomes limpified, ornamental, where limp represents the compression of antithesis, embracing resistance in action and edging toward capital. What is anticipated is the expression of an advanced masculinity detached from the virile forms of pleasure.

The protocols are governed by a type of achievement through abandonment and surrender of sovereignty. The goal is to achieve a type of meaning that resolves itself, releasing from speculation and interpretation, owing to its serious blurring effect whose difficulty in delivering a product becomes capital.
