Since 2015, Nino Baumgartner has been working on the Shortkuts, a series of participatory and site-specific performances. The Shortkuts evolved from Baumgartner's Maneuver series: also performances, but without audience participation. In the Shortkuts, Baumgartner takes interested people on walks - although the term 'walks' is too sweet, too harmless for the tours he undertakes with an audience. Because the Shortkuts rarely follow well-trodden paths: much more often, the artist leads them through thickets and rough terrain; over fences and trees; into shafts and tunnels. Together with his guests, he slowly feels his way from the starting point - which can be a school or an exhibition space - into the surrounding area; searching for the breaks in the city and the wilderness in urban space.
