Montag Modus is an interdisciplinary event series organized by the MMpraxis curatorial platform. The series centers around performance art, choreography and time-based media. Montag Modus is based in Berlin with a program that involves both local as well as artists and cultural workers from the regions of Central and Eastern Europe. Its program is site-specific and has an annual thematic focus. Each edition presents multiple works and offers a one-week on-site residency to the artists. The simultaneous engagement of various spaces allows the works to enter into a temporary dialogue in an exhibition-like situation.
