Boëdromios, minus20degree, Flachau, AT
with Peter Fritzenwallern

Boëdromios is a series of performances in and around Flachau in collaboration with Peter Fritzenwallner for the minus20degree festival for art & architecture in Flachau, Austria.

From Paris to Hong Kong, a new kind of paramilitary and tactical culture is emerging as a reaction to the effects of globalization.
Distinctions in political positions are often blurred—or even outright absurd. Fritzenwallner and Obermair distill these eclectic phenomena into concise artistic works. Performances take place at scheduled times in the form of participatory video shoots involving the audience.

Flachau Boëdromios resembles a road movie that seeks to channel aggression, fears, and fantasies—arising in response to global challenges—into a collective catharsis.

The performances were carried out with the support of students from the Department of Architecture at FH Münster, Germany, shortly before the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, which began in Europe at well-known ski resorts.
