Joining forces under the claim ‘The land speaks for itself and a tree will come’, Jasmin Kiranoglu, Steppeh Barthy Beninilli and Matthias Müller share a performative interpretation of this years thematic field. The sliding into the unknown is performed on an ancient open pit. Right after the act, the Wild Card dance training of Dampfzenterale this time reveals as a rave on this dystopian terrain with performance artist Morea Gërxhaliu alias DJ Gërxhalita: "It’s meow or never!"
13:30 Meeting Point at Tram station Bümpliz
13:45 Tea & performances
14:15 Wild Card Training / Short day-rave

Beninilli is not an artist who talks about his work, he lets his art speak for itself, allowing unique performances to emerge that transport us into bizarre worlds.
Jasmin Kiranoglu is a performance artist who studied performance at CAP (Contemporary Arts Practice) and has retained her individuality, performing here on rough terrain to the sounds of musician Matthias Müller.
“In shadowed depths where moonlight wanes,
A turntablist crafts spectral refrains.
Melodies morph to phantasmal dance,
An arcane rite, a trance.
Genres whisper as night’s veiled sighs,
Echoes of secrets in twilight’s eyes.
From dusk’s chill to midnight’s spell,
The clock’s slow ticking, a ghostly knell.
Beats transmogrify in the haunted air,
A symphony of despair.
Notes intertwine like ivy’s bind,
Ensnaring souls, ensnaring mind.
In this gothic realm where darkness gleams, A turntablist coniures more than it seems.
Each set an incantation, each beat a sigh,
A danse macabre that defies.”
Morea Gërxhaliu

The 26th edition of the international performance festival stretches over 10 days, creating space for a lot of informality, exchange and the in-between. Each day is curated by different artists and invites the audience to different contexts on the periphery. In a destabilized world the festival is dedicated to letting go and sliding into new fragile states of uncertainty and enduring them.
This event was made possible by financial support from the City of Bern, the Canton of Bern and the Temporatio Foundation.

The world is on fire, es flutet, stürmt und rutscht. Die Erosion greift auch gängige Konstrukte unserer westlichen Gesellschaft an und legt Brandherde der Angst und Verunsicherung.
Auf der Suche nach einer Verortung von Performancekunst in diesem Zeitgeist lässt das diesjährige internationale Performancefestival BONE los und rutscht an die Abhänge des normativen Denkens und Handelns, dekonstruiert schmelzende permafrostige Prämissen wie Stadt/Land, Mann/Frau, heimisch/fremd oder Globaler Süden/Norden und offeriert unfertige und prozessartige performative Zugänge.
Auch die Form und Machart des Festivals lässt los und rutscht in unbekannte vielfältige Ausläufe. So wurden aus dem 3-tägigen Festival 10 Tage, von verschiedenen Positionen kuratiert und die künstlerischen Acts, Begegnungen und Experimente verteilen sich auf Spielorte, die auf ihre eigene Art peripher sind.
BONE steigt am 29. November ein in den Prozess (Bar und Bühne) mit der Drag-Künstlerin Jenna Marvin - Performance-Star aus dem Dokumentarfilm «Queendom» - und dem lokal-ländlichen Kollektiv Quellpunkt. Dieser Eröffnungsabend ist ausserdem Vernissage der Jubiläumspublikation im Rahmen des Werkbuchbeitrags des Kantons Bern.
Über unterschiedliche Kooperationen und spezifische Kontexte folgt ein künstlerisches Konstrukt pro Tag, immer anders offen und zugänglich für ein breit interessiertes Publikum, wobei auch dieses an die Grenzen seiner Definition rutscht. So stretcht sich BONE über 10 Tage bis ins Schwobhaus, wo die Ghanaische Performancekünstlerin Marcella Nuerkie Akuetteh ihre 10-tägige Festival-Residenz zeigt.

The world is on fire, it is flooding, storming, and eroding. Simultaneously, the upheaval is attacking common constructs of our Western society and creating waves of fear and insecurity.
In the search for a position of performance art in this zeitgeist, this year's international performance festival BONE aims to let go and slide down the slopes of normative thinking and acting, deconstructing melting permafrosty premises such as city/country, man/woman, native/foreign or Global South/North and offering unfinished and process-like performative approaches.
The form and style of the festival also lets go and slips into unknown outlets. The usually 3-day festival stretches over 10 days, allowing different positions and artistic acts, encounters and experiments spread across venues that are somehow peripheral.
BONE starts at the Prozess on 29 November with the drag artist Jenna Marvin - star of the documentary ‘Queendom’ - and the local-rural collective Quellpunkt with the drag artist Balanza LeGendery.
This opening evening is also the launch of the anniversary publication as part of the workbook contribution of the Canton of Bern.
