Revolving Documents―Narrations of Beginnings, Recent Methods and Cross-Mappings of Performance Art (745. Kunst Design Medienkultur) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Challenging dominant histories of the genre, this book focuses on translocal and transcultural connections, and seeks to generate, expand knowledge on different ­narrations of the beginnings of Performance Art. It brings together essays of leading international scholars, curators, and artists who explore the strategies and epistemic/historiographic tools with which museums, galleries, but also historians and theorists and artists, have recollected, reconstructed and represented, this important artistic and activist practice. Written from queer, feminist, and critical perspectives and thus offering multiple methodological frameworks, the publication comes as a result of an intensive dialogue between authors coming from various cultural and academic contexts such as: Switzerland, Slovakia, US, Israel, Germany, former Yugoslavia, UK, and Portgual.
