ANABERG is an extensive participatory project oscillating
at the intersection of choreography, architecture and visual arts. The link between them is the extensive issue of performativity analyzed from the feminist perspective.
The starting point for the realization was a reflection on alternative ways of shaping public space by female voices and bodies. The amphitheater at St. Anna, designed in the 1930s by German architects Franz Bohmer and Georg Petrich, became for the artist, in the words of Jadwiga Sawicka, "a form calling for use" along with the whole
wealth of contexts surrounding this place. St. Anna as
a Christian personification of women's support and a link between generations, the topographic shape of the mountain as a place of contact with God, as well as the post-Nazi amphitheater located in a large hole, once regularly drilled by men - miners working in the quarry located here, creates a very non-obvious and contrasting space, in which architecture appears as full of duality and internal conflicts.

In this place, on September 28, 2021, Marta Jarnuszkiewicz, in cooperation with the choreographer Liwia Bargieł and
10 women from the local community, created a performative action attempting to build a new relationship between women and this place. With their actions, the participants broke the existing architecture understood as a set of habits and regular practices that have been taking place in the amphitheater for decades. In the Aneks GSW Gallery, we show a multi-channel video installation, which is a record
of the above activities.
