Glorious Catastrophe: Jack Smith, Performance and Visual Culture
ISBN: 9780719091476 / Angielski / Miękka / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Heralded by peers as well as by later generations of artists, Jack Smith is an icon of the New York avant-garde.

Glorious catastrophe presents a detailed critical analysis of Smith's work from the early 1960s until his AIDS-related death in 1989, and foregrounds the challenges his work may pose for histories of performance and visual culture. Smith poses uncomfortable challenges to cultural criticism and historical...

Beyond Reasonable Doubt : An Investigation of Doubt, Risk and Testimony Through Performance Art Processes in Relation to Systems of Legal Justice
ISBN: 9783643904409 / Angielski / Miękka / 246 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book investigates and proposes that the diverse evidence of human rights violations is carried and conveyed through gestures: from the staging of terrorist spectacles, the performances of legal testimony, and acts of protests to responses of survivors existing on the cusp of invisibility and silence. Embodied evidence forms the core of the study, led through performance and installation artworks (the exhibition The Shadow of a Doubt is documented here). Performance art can enrich the interpretation of events through injecting doubt and risk. This does not replace traditional methods of...

Performative monuments: The rematerialisation of public art
ISBN: 9780719095917 / Angielski / Miękka / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A man selling kebabs in the shadow of a papier mache tree; a woman standing with a small stage built around her breasts while people wait their turn to touch them; another woman projecting snapshots of Belgrade with the official buildings painted out: what do these events have in common? All are works of public art. And all take a cue from the fugitive art of performance. The most forceful monuments of the last few decades, whether built to last on national malls or flashed as signs of protest, were in fact designed by performance artists.
This book argues for the conceptual significance... A man selling kebabs in the shadow of a papier mache tree; a woman standing with a small stage built around her breasts while people wait their turn t...

ISBN: 9781138809833 / Angielski / Twarda / 282 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Norms of embodied behaviour for males and females, as promoted in mainstream Western public arenas of popular culture and the everyday, continue to work, overtly and covertly, as definitive and restrictive barriers to the realm of possibilities of embodied gender expression and appreciation. They serve to disempower and marginalize those not inclined to embody according to such dichotomous models. This book explores the ramifications of the way our gendered, sexed and culturally constructed bodies are situated toward notions of difference and highlights the need to safeguard the social and...
