Meie kultuuri rõhutatud individualismi taustal kutsub Hospitality 3 vaatajat mõtlema sellele, mida tähendab üksikisikute jaoks koos töötamine. Laud mahla ja suupistetega, teine laud heliplaatide ja muusikavarustusega. Struktuuri tähelepanuväärne avatus – iga etteaste on ebamugavalt erinev, kuid siiski lõdvalt võttes üks ja sama – võimaldab etenduslikku vabadust, mida trupp pole kunagi varem kogenud. Iga kord, kui nad etendavad Hospitality 3, arendatakse ja lihvitakse seda vabadust edasi. Tänu oma loomulikule tasakaalutusele esitab see olukord trupile väljakutse. Hospitality 3 on osa PME-ART’i kestvast Hospitality projektist, mis sai alguse 2007. aastal.

Keskendudes kunstilisele koostööle, on PME-ART-i töö pidev maailma küsimuse alla seadmine, julguse leidmine selleks, et öelda midagi meie praeguse ebameeldiva olukorra kohta ja seda viisil, mis oleks vahetu, kuid keerukas, etendusliku olukorra uurimine.

Ta oli Solid State Breakdance’i kaasasutaja (2000-2006) ning on teinud pikaajalist koostööd Martin Belanger’iga (production Laps), Ame Henderson’iga (Public Recordings) ja Matija Ferlin’iga (Provincija).

Jacob Wren on kirjanik ja ekstsentriliste performansite looja. Ta on üks PME-ART-i lavastajaid. Wren on teinud koostööd ka Nadia Rossiga (STO Union). Ta kohandas ja lavastas Wolfgang Koeppen’i 1954. aasta romaani Surm Roomas Sophiensäl’i jaoks Berliinis. Jacob oli ka koos Pieter de Buysser’iga Optimismi Antoloogia autor. Ta kirjutab regulaarselt kunstiajakirjadele ja kataloogidele. Ta viimased raamatud on Sisseharjutamata ilu, Perekonnad luuakse kopuleerimise teel ja Poliitiliselt ilmajäetute kättemaksufantaasiad.

Against the background of the over-emphasis on individualism in our culture, HOSPITALITY 3 invites the spectator to reflect on what it means for individuals to work together. A table with juice and snacks, and another cluttered with records and musical equipment. The remarkable openness of the structure – uncannily different in each show yet generally the same – allows for a performative freedom that the company has never approached before. Each and every time HOSPITALITY 3 is performed this freedom is further developed, engaged with and refined, challenging the company with its natural disequilibrium.

HOSPITALITY 3 is part of PME-ART’s ongoing HOSPITALITÉ-HOSPITALITY Project, begun in 2007.

Focusing on artistic collaboration, PME-ART is an ongoing process of questioning the world, of finding the courage to say direct and complex things about the current state of affairs, and of interrogating the performance situation.
