The installation was executed in the Gustav Vigeland Park, close to the Monolith. 0'Anatomical Theatre' explored principle of ±body in space? as well as the qualities of this particular historical architecture with all of its physical extremities on view. 'Anatomical Theatre' served as a platform for the exploration of the mind and body through a program of lectures, discussions and conversations, a video/ film, and performance program as well as execution of different practices in physical and mental training. The events took place inside the theatre, and the sculptural structure thus became a dialogue-theatre with historical reference.00'Anthology - Anatomical theatre' is a selection of photography and artwork, essays, 0papers and poems. They are all part of a series of lectures, performances and readings related to the installation of, and programme of events for, 'Anatomical theatre' by Petrine Vinje.
