The Spirits of Maritime Crossing, BAB @ Venice Biennale, 9 May to 2 August 2026

The Spirits of Maritime Crossing 2026 is an exhibition by 20 artists from Southeast Asia, Serbia, and

Ireland at the Venice Biennale de Arte at Palazzo Rocca Contarini Corfù. As part of the collateral

events, the exhibition focuses on the theme of maritime routes as pathways of exchange, rupture,

and renewal, tracing how stories of migration, diaspora, and spiritual resilience move in quiet

tones across oceans and generations. We are delighted to include the work of renowned Irish artist

Amanda Coogan in this exhibition exploring strangeness, melancholy and solace in relation to

identity, diaspora, displacement and human migration.

Coogan will show her Ode to Joy - Thai Sign Language video work, transposing Beethoven’s 9th

Symphony into body language. The work hones the spirits of rage, resistance, resilience and hope.

Working with a Thai Deaf choir the work re-members this totemic symphony with the magnetic

power of Coogan in performance. Coogan’s participation is gratefully supported by Culture Ireland.

Hilla Steinert is delighted to have been selected to perform, alongside my beautiful colleagues Aya Toraiwa, Miki Shoji, Emma Lusena Ash, Yiannis Pappas, Roksolana Nakvatska, Rachel Bo Clark and Phoenix Chase-Meares, Marina Abramović’s performance NUDE WITH SKELETON as part of the exhibition BALKAN EROTIC EPIK at the GROPIUSBAU.

The performance will take place throughout the duration of the exhibition, from the opening on 14. April until 23. August.

Abramović says of this performance:
„The work is really about facing your own mortality. Is about fear of pain and fear of dying. It's something that in our life we fear the most.“

Furthermore, for us performers, it is a shared process of attention, endurance and presence.
