Book Synopsis MISPERFORMANCE : essays in shifting perspectives by : Marin Blaevi?
Download or read book MISPERFORMANCE : essays in shifting perspectives written by Marin Blaevi? and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-07-02 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MISperformance: essays in shifting perspectives is a collection of essays that address a spectrum of cultural, organizational, technological, ecological, political and daily performances by focusing on the causes and consequences of a misfire, misconception, misrecognition, misnaming, misfitting etc. Aspects and impacts of MISperformance that are susceptible to provoking disturbances, distortions, alternations, abortions, if not disasters within diverse spheres of private and social life, including aesthetic and political practices, are investigated in the light of their potentially both regressive, even tragic outcome, and resistant, even transgressive efficacy, as also the absence or abandonment of any reason in or for performance.
Book Synopsis The Creative Critic by : Katja Hilevaara
Download or read book The Creative Critic written by Katja Hilevaara and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As practitioner-researchers, how do we discuss and analyse our work without losing the creative drive that inspired us in the first place? Built around a diverse selection of writings from leading researcher-practitioners and emerging artists in a variety of fields, The Creative Critic: Writing as/about Practice celebrates the extraordinary range of possibilities available when writing about one’s own work and the work one is inspired by. It re-thinks the conventions of the scholarly output to propose that critical writing be understood as an integral part of the artistic process, and even as artwork in its own right. Finding ways to make the intangible nature of much of our work ‘count’ under assessment has become increasingly important in the Academy and beyond. The Creative Critic offers an inspiring and useful sourcebook for students and practitioner-researchers navigating this area. Please see the companion site to the book, http://www.creativecritic.co.uk, where some of the chapters have become unfixed from the page.

Book Synopsis Contemporary Dance Festivals in the Former Yugoslav Space by : Alexandra Baybutt
Download or read book Contemporary Dance Festivals in the Former Yugoslav Space written by Alexandra Baybutt and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-06-09 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book expands the understanding of conditions defining the creation and circulation of contemporary dance that differ across Europe. It focuses on festival-making connected with the Balkan regional project ‘Nomad Dance Academy’ (NDA), and highlights collective approaches to sustain a theorisation of festivals using the concepts of dissensus and imperceptible politics. Drawing from anthropological methods, three festivals PLESkavica, Slovenia; Kondenz, Serbia and LocoMotion, North Macedonia, are explored through social, political and historical currents affecting curatorial practice. This book closely follows how festival-makers navigate the values of international development that during and after the Yugoslav wars looked to art as part of peacekeeping and nation-building processes. This coincided with increasing discourse and practices of contemporary dance that gained momentum in the 1980s alongside European festivalisation. I show how contemporary dance acts as an agent for transformation, but also a carrier of older forms of social organisation, reflecting methods and values of Yugoslav Worker Self-management that are deployed by the groups creating the festivals. This book will be of interest to dance scholars as well as researchers tracing the long-term effects of the dissolution of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.
Book Synopsis Art for a New Understanding by : Mindy N. Besaw
Download or read book Art for a New Understanding written by Mindy N. Besaw and published by University of Arkansas Press. This book was released on 2018-10-01 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Art for a New Understanding, an exhibition from Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art that opened in October 2018, seeks to radically expand and reposition the narrative of American art since 1950 by charting a history of the development of contemporary Indigenous art from the United States and Canada, beginning when artists moved from more regionally-based conversations and practices to national and international contemporary art contexts. This fully illustrated volume includes essays by art historians and historians and reflections by the artists included in the collection. Also included are key contemporary writings—from the 1950s onward—by artists, scholars, and critics, investigating the themes of transculturalism and pan-Indian identity, traditional practices conducted in radically new ways, displacement, forced migration, shadow histories, the role of personal mythologies as a means to reimagine the future, and much more. As both a survey of the development of Indigenous art from the 1950s to the present and a consideration of Native artists within contemporary art more broadly, Art for a New Understanding expands the definition of American art and sets the tone for future considerations of the subject. It is an essential publication for any institution or individual with an interest in contemporary Native American art, and an invaluable resource in ongoing scholarly considerations of the American contemporary art landscape at large.

Book Synopsis ReClaiming Participation by : Mathias Denecke
Download or read book ReClaiming Participation written by Mathias Denecke and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2016-02-29 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume unravels the debates on the »Participation Age«: Instead of perpetuating visions of social »all-inclusion« or the »digital divide«, the collection reclaims collectivity as an effect of technological and historical conditions. Thinking of participation both as promise and duty, the contributions analyse the attractions and impositions connected to the socio-technical formation of collectivities. The constraints of participation are addressed by focusing on the mutual shaping of user practices and technological environments. It is hence a relational thinking that allows specifying the manifold interconnections of technology, practices and discourses.
Book Synopsis Artists in the Archive by : Paul Clarke
Download or read book Artists in the Archive written by Paul Clarke and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-06-13 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Artists in the Archive explores the agency and materiality of the archival document through a stunning collection of critical writings and original artworks. It examines the politics and philosophy behind re-using remains, historicising this artistic practice and considering the breadth of ways in which archival materials inform, inflect and influence new works. Taking a fresh look at the relationships between insider know-how and outsider knowledge, Artists in the Archive opens a vital dialogue between a global range of artists and scholars. It seeks to trouble the distinction between artistic practice and scholarly research, offering disciplinary perspectives from experimental theatre, performance art, choreography and dance, to visual art making, archiving and curating.
Book Synopsis The Illuminated Theatre by : Joe Kelleher
Download or read book The Illuminated Theatre written by Joe Kelleher and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-05-08 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What sort of thing is a theatre image? How is it produced and consumed? Who is responsible for the images? Why do the images stay with us when the performance is over? How do we learn to speak of what we see and imagine? And how do we relate what we experience in the theatre to what we share with each other of the world? The Illuminated Theatre is a book about theatricality and spectatorship in the early twenty-first century. In a wide-ranging analysis that draws upon theatrical, visual and philosophical approaches, it asks how spectators and audiences negotiate the complexities and challenges of contemporary experimental performance arts. It is also a book about how European practitioners working across a range of forms, from theatre and performance to dance, opera, film and visual arts, use images to address the complexities of the times in which their work takes place. Through detailed and impassioned accounts of works by artists such as Dickie Beau, Wendy Houstoun, Alvis Hermanis and Romeo Castellucci, along with close readings of experimental theoretical and art writing from Gillian Rose to T.J. Clark and Marie-José Mondzain, the book outlines the historical, aesthetic and political dimensions of a contemporary ‘suffering of images.’

Book Synopsis Antike Mythologie in christlichen Kontexten der Spätantike by : Hartmut Leppin
Download or read book Antike Mythologie in christlichen Kontexten der Spätantike written by Hartmut Leppin and published by ISSN. This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die klassische Mythologie überlebte die Christianisierung des Römischen Reiches und das Ende der Antike; das ist ein ebenso bekannter wie bei näherem Zusehen überraschender Befund, der unterschiedlich beschrieben werden kann. So war in den Literaturwissenschaften lange von der christlichen Gefangenschaft der Mythologie die Rede. Der Band, der Beiträge verschiedener Sprachen und Disziplinen vereint, versucht zu differenzieren und fragt danach, in welcher Weise antike Mythologie in verschiedenen Kontexten Polemiken ausgesetzt war oder etwa als Bildungsgut neutralisiert oder wiederum angeeignet wurde. So entsteht ein facettenreiches Bild von den Bedingungen des keineswegs selbstverständlichen Überlebens von klassischer Mythologie in der Spätantike.
