A ball with package insert.
Key facts
The art space ada — artistic dynamic association opens its doors for its tenth anniversary already in the afternoon, with a group exhibition of contemporary positions. In the evening, the etiquette of the classical Viennese ball intertwines with art, music and science into a singular concoction.
Under the patronage of Dr. Marcuse Hafner, opening, dance and mask meet a music programme between experiment and dance floor — with DJ Mimu Merz, unkomfortabel (Jörg Piringer) and El Laicho Rapido. Centerpiece of the evening is the Asifin Placebo Forte® Bar: a homeopathic drug advisory that supports guests in shaping their ideal event — fully in the spirit of the Asifin principle, which investigates how ritual, context and expectation shape our experience. The ballroom becomes the experimental setup, every guest a participant.

About ada
The association artistic dynamic association — ada for short was founded in 2015 in the context of a temporary use at the Brunnenmarkt and, after that ended prematurely, moved into an abandoned apartment at Wattgasse 16, where the association has continuously delivered its programme ever since. Since spring 2016, the programme has been hosted in the association’s premises at Wattgasse 16/6 — initially planned only for one year, by now grown into a year-round programme.
