Bibliography
Dagmar I. Glausnitzer-Smith graduated in London from the Royal College of Art in 2000 and from Goldsmiths' College in 1994. After her completion of a two year Picker Fellowship at Kingston University in 2003, she has returned to Germany organizing international T.a.T.(pure action) Performance Art Workshops (www.kunstwirkstoff.de), City site-specific 12-hour Performance Art Workshops called �Werktag� during study trips abroad and developing the international exhibition as event -transit station- (www.transitstation.de). London, Berlin, Edinburgh and planned Copenhagen 2010 in collaboration with the Royal Danish Academy. Thinking through the means of two-dimensional drawing prolongs the act of transformation in the process of making an object. It is the idea of placement and presentation, which involves first of all the recognition of a specific context. It is auto-fictional in process and immediate in pure action.
Exhibitions and Performances: USA, Germany, UK, France, Scotland, Denmark

Transitstation, as a concept: transitstation is an ongoing, international exhibition and event featuring Performance Art, music, experimental electronica, physical theatre, poetry reading, film and projection, installation, interactive performance art, fashion and lectures, workshops and presentations. 40-70 international artists collaborate to create a two-day high energy event in changing to an international context. Their work is appealing to a wide audience and generates many creative opportunities. The demographic profile is 15 % children and teenagers, 25 % University students, 55% adults and local artists and 5 % pensioners. The event has been on tour through Europe since 2003. At the centre of the space is a scaffolding system, which against all expectations for a silent visit, seems to explode with non-stop action during the 24-hour weekend event. Artists choose with their individual genre of how to integrate the sculptural structure. Performers and visitors alike become part of the work, by occupying and experiencing the space and the actions held within it.

T.a.T. Performance Art Workshops in Germany, London, Berlin, Scandinavia
