“LIVE, WORK, POSE！” is the second installment of the long-term project "MACA IS BURNING" dance workshops organized by MACA. This event will also serve as the afterparty for VIP preview of the 2024 Beijing Dangdai Art Fair, proposed by MACA in collaboration with the Beijing Dangdai Art Fair, Byebye Disco, and Art-Ba-Ba. 

On May 23rd, MACA will bring voguing dance from contemporary art institutions back to its roots in the underground clubs of the ballroom scene. This event will start with a Vogue Show, followed by a fashion runway competition and a shared queer wardrobe. The three chapters of the event—LIVE, WORK, POSE—present a feast of creativity from both Beijing's local ballroom community and the contemporary art scene.

We are honored to invite the local ballroom community from Beijing as the special guests of this event. They will guide the audience on an exciting adventure to experience the vibrant energy of underground ballroom culture and the limitless charm of voguing dance. This event is jointly organized by MACA, Beijing Dangdai Art Fair, Byebye Disco, and Art-Ba-Ba. Special thanks go to the Beijing ballroom community for their strong support and cooperation. As is customary with the "MACA IS BURNING" series, 30% of the evening's ticket sales will be donated to support and help people living with HIV within the ballroom community.
