Join us for Brian Fuataโs performance work, followed by drinks in the gallery, to welcome the 2026 Adelaide Biennial at Samstag.
Established in Australiaโs experimental performance scene (1999-2006) with his autofiction monologues and 20-minute improvisations, ๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฎ๐ป ๐๐๐ฎ๐๐ฎ works across visual and live arts via performance, film, installation, email and sms text, social media and print. His practice in structured improvisation is the โmediation of performanceโ drawn from reading select physical, social and relational features of a given site and context to manifest his live and digital events.
