Sinopse | Unpacking the history of performance art and celebrating the work of contemporary practitioners a must-read for both art lovers and students alike Stunningly beautiful, deeply puzzling, powerfully moving, or intensely unsettling--performance art can evoke a wide variety of responses. In this important survey, Catherine Wood, one of the world's leading curators and writers in this field, provides the broadest and most up-to-date insight into the subject yet published. Wood proposes performance not as a genre separate from object-making but as a medium that has profoundly influenced the shape of contemporary art. From the spectacular forms of intimacy performed by Marina Abramovic to the painting processions initiated by Ei Arakawa and the social activism of Tania Bruguera, hugely divergent practices have emerged in the past 30 years that embrace the worlds of sculpture and painting, spectacle, and protest. Shifting the focus from "I" to "We" and then "It," Performance in Contemporary Art is divided into sections that examine the perspective of the individual, the social, and the object. Wood looks at histories of performance through the lens of contemporary practitioners: the Japanese Gutai group in the 1950s, Brazilian neo-concretism in the 1960s, and the feminist performance at Womanhouse in the United States in the 1970s are key examples of historical precedents that have been revisited, reformed, or rejected by contemporary artists in the 21st century. About the Author Catherine Wood is curator of Contemporary Art / Performance at Tate Modern. She co-curated the exhibitions "The World as a Stage" at Tate Modern in 2007, "Pop Life" in 2010 and curated "A Bigger Splash: Painting after Performance" in 2012, as well as co-directing the opening programme for the Tate Tanks in 2012, titled, "Art in Action". She has programmed numerous performance works at Tate since 2003 including works by Mark Leckey, Joan Jonas, Guy de Cointet, Jiri Kovanda and Sturtevant and initiated the online project, "Performance Room" in 2011. Wood is author of "Yvonne Rainer: The Mind is a Muscle" (2007, Afterall/MIT press). A regular contributor to Afterall, Artforum and Mousse magazines, she has also written numerous catalogue essays, recently on Joachim Koester, Piotr Uklanski, and Sung Hwan Kim. |
