SAME -but- DIFFERENT
@ HUMBOLDT PARK BOATHOUSE
1301 N Humboldt Dr, Chicago, IL 60622
Opening Sunday, September 21st, from 6PM - 7PM
On view through Sunday, September 21st
Defibrillator Performance Art Gallery warmly invites you to participate in SAME – but – DIFFERENT, a global performance action marking the autumnal equinox. This one-hour gathering will take place during the final hour of daylight on the last day of summer:
Sunday, September 21, 6–7PM Humboldt Park Boathouse 1301 N Humboldt Dr, Chicago, IL 60622
Conceived as an international project, SAME – but – DIFFERENT unfolds simultaneously in nearly twenty locations around the world. At each site, performance artists and participants gather for a collective improvisation—informal, unscripted, and guided only by the principles of equality, presence, and mutual respect.
This action highlights the equinox as a rare moment of balance, when day equals night, and invokes it as a metaphor for the fragile right to assemble in public space—a right increasingly imperiled across the globe. Participants are encouraged to bring simple objects for use in the improvisation, with the clear directive that nothing is left behind, nothing is destroyed, and no one interferes with the life of the park.
We hope you will join us in Chicago as part of this global constellation of gatherings.
