2025 marks the 60th anniversary of Wiener Spaziergang (Viennese Walk, 1965) by Günter Brus. Throughout this year, I am re-performing this legendary action in every city and landscape I encounter. Each walk is both homage and transformation, extending Brus’s radical gesture into new geographies and new times.
At the end of this year-long project, I plan to create one global simultaneous action — a living echo of Brus’s radical gesture, expanded into today’s world.
International performance, visual and sound artist Josef Ka blends richly varied influences – everything from Butoh dance to cinematic theory – with her decades of nomadic world travel to create bold, highly personal site-specific art.
Josef Ka’s themes range from investigating the place of the human body in contemporary reality to exploring the inner body as a representative system of our human and post human kind.
Her artistic practice often actively invites the audience inside a sort of private reverie, making it is a deeply participatory one; she actively engages with both her audiences and with a wide diversity of other experimental artists.
In addition to her own work, Josef Ka curates a regular series of events and exhibitions at her Helsinki underground space – Sauna Gallery – and teaches classes on the theory and practice of performance art. She is also the inventor of the WORST THEATRE and her yogic training system, KA-YOGA.
