Ana  Dinger would rather not define what she does, but she has studied dance  and visual arts, as well as art history and theory. From early on she  felt uncomfortable with categories, oscillating between theory and  practice and often undermining disciplinary constraints. Her academic  trajectory includes ESD, FBAUP, FBAUL (graduation in Sculpture) and UCP  (post-graduation in Contemporary Art and Phd in Cultures Studies). She  writes about visual and performative arts, about archives, bodies and  body-archives, about modes of continuation of performance-based  artworks, about ghosts as metonymic manifestations. Researcher  affiliated with AND Lab since 2015, she has since followed schools and  labs and collaborated (more intensely between 2015 and 2019) in the  process of continuous reformulation of Modus Operandi AND. She  co-curated, with Fernanda Eugenio, the project "Of the Irreparable: what can an ethics of reparation do?" (2018-2019),  in the scope of which, among other events and activities, she  contributed to the organization and editorial coordination and  conception of the Book-Box AND. Both also collaborate in the Metalogue  Series since 2015, a series of conversations that inhabit a different  question at each edition and materialize in forms as diverse as a PowerPoint slide  battle, an article rehearsed live, a talk without talking, a game of  cards, a task-oriented performance in a garden or an epistolary  relationship between the past and future.
