PERFORM! 2025 | Isaac Chong Wai: The horizon we can never touch

Film

A line across glass became a stage for reflection: on Sunday, 14 September, Isaac Chong Wai presented his performance The horizon we can never touch along the 50-meter façade of the Neue Nationalgalerie. Facing each other across the window, participants adjusted their height to align with a shifting horizon—asking: Who leads, and who follows when norms and standards are at play?

We are grateful to everyone who joined us and made this performance part of their Berlin Art Week experience. A special thank you to all the performers as well as the American Academy in Berlin
