Career

Gisela Hochuli studied economics and sociology at the University of Bern from 1990 to 1996 and then, from 2001 to 2005, visual arts at the Zurich University of the Arts , where Monica Klingler was teaching performance at the time . There she came into contact with guest performance lecturers such as Esther Ferrer and Boris Nieslony . With the influential performance art duo Monika Günther and Ruedi Schill , she got to know performance art , also as the art of action, expanded, which also offered her the opportunity to perform at the International Performance Festival Giswil , which was organized by these actors at the time . Since 2002 she has shown her work at national and international performance festivals in Asia, South America, North Africa and Europe. She has her studio in the Progr cultural center in the city ​​of Bern , where she also organizes. She organizes and curates performance events such as the Progr Performance Platform PPP in Bern, which was initiated by Norbert Klassen in parallel to the Bone Festival , Art of Encounter with Boris Nieslony, Marianne Papst and Simone Etter in Basel and was guest curator at the Polish one in 2017 Performance Festival Interakcje in Piotrków Trybunalski .

Her solo performances show a fixed structure that supports her situational work. She plays with the inclusion of her own body, the space, the audience as well as site-specific materials and contexts. «For Gisela Hochuli, performance is the ideal art form for public spaces. With her "Autobiography" campaign, she has relocated herself to her hometown in Aargau and made her search for traces tangible. " Magdalena Schindler wrote about Gisela Hochuli's work in 2016 in Kunst-Stafette # 60. And continue to publish them

“I like to work with what is there - what is obvious. For example, I worked in Noseland with my origins, in Santiago de Chile with a large palm leaf, in China with a red cloth, in Münsingen with Aare water, in Helsiniki with a piece of frozen snow and in Arrecife with a wasteland. "

- Magdalena Schindler : Journal B: Art Relay # 60: Gisela Hochuli July 5th, 2016

An important part of her work are improvisations like the usual jam sessions in music , with other performers, which are called open sessions or open source sessions. It is about the unplanned, moment-related development of actions , actions and interventions . What happens is subject to the process , is dependent on everyone and appears as a whole. She also produces video documentations about performance creators and about performance art, 2005 The essence of performance art , in 2010 the documentation of the performance land surveying a 16-day performance tour in 2010 through Meiringen , Lucerne , Zurich and Basel , and a portrait of the performance formation Black Market international .
