Brian Feldman Projects

Brian Feldman (he/him/his) is an award-winning performance artist and actor. The recipient of four Arts and Humanities Fellowships in Theatre (2017, 2018, 2021, 2025) and a Projects, Events, and Festivals grant (2019) from the D.C. Commission on the Arts and Humanities, a 2011 State of Florida Individual Artist Fellowship (Interdisciplinary), and three grant awards from United Arts of Central Florida (2008, 2011, 2015), he has also been named Best Performance Artist by Orlando Weekly (2008, 2009) and Washington City Paper (2018, 2024). He lives in Washington, Douglass Commonwealth, where he has presented work in all 8 Wards and 30 D.C. neighborhoods. As the news site DCist noted, “In a city that has an advocacy group exploring how to ‘make D.C. weird’ – and is still struggling – Brian Feldman is a shining beacon of eccentricity.” His work has been featured on movie screens, television, radio, in print, and online, earning critical comparisons to the likes of Marina Abramović, David Blaine, Chris Burden, John Cage, Christo, Marcel Duchamp, Tehching Hsieh, and Andy Kaufman. Since August 2003, he has presented 1,000+ performances of 140+ projects at 175+ venues and festivals in cities worldwide via Brian Feldman Projects, one of the world’s premier presenters of experimental time-based art.
