“Remember to breathe. Let the car enter your imagination and enter the car with your imagination,” says a mischievous voice whose tenor brings to mind Mephisto, the demon from German folklore. These words mark the beginning of “Enter Exude,” an auto-erotic performance piece put on over the weekend as part of Performa Biennial 2023, the latest exhibition of a group founded in 2004 by art historian RoseLee Goldberg to cultivate new ideas in the world of experimental performance. Put together by the Finnish artist Teo Ala-Ruona, “Enter Exude”, turned out to be a daring exploration of trans-masculinity and queer ecology through a hypnotic and erotic show which took place in a warehouse, situated on Scott Avenue, at the border between Bushwick and East Williamsburg. The performance itself provoked memories of Berghain, the infamous techno club in Berlin, where foreplay in all its forms is welcome and where anything is possible.
