Event Description

Protagonist? Irruption? Squatter? Successively celebrated, rejected, ignored, and rediscovered, “performance” as a term and practice is a vexed and provocative domain within a number of fields. The publication of two new books—Shannon Jackson’s Social Works: Performing Art, Supporting Publics (Routledge, 2010) and Judith Rodenbeck’s Radical Prototypes: Allan Kaprow and the Invention of Happenings (MIT, 2011)—provides the opportunity for a conversation about the possibilities and perils of performance as an aesthetic and social practice. The authors sit down with Pablo Helguera, André Lepecki, Frazer Ward, and Marianne Weems to think together about how performance may be engaged and reinterpreted from different vantage points, whether from the perspective of art history, experimental theater, expanded choreography, or socially-engaged art.

Literature programs at The Kitchen are made possible with generous support from the Axe-Houghton Foundation and with public funds from The National Endowment for the Arts, the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs and the New York State Council on the Arts, a state agency.

WE LIVE WITHIN AN UNSTABLE LANDSCAPE

This is a social networking website connecting people concerned about innovation and experimentation on art, dance, embodiment, cognition, science, networks, post-humanism, media and the unstable landscape of contemporary culture and life.

We are in a transitional phase and refocusing the network with a broader interdisciplinary framework. It will reflect a contemporary community interacting and embedded unstablelandscape.

This network is maintained and administrated by Marlon Barrios Solano as an independent art/curatorial/social innovation project.
