My dissertation is opened by the analytic of black female flesh provided by Hortense Spillers in her monumental essay, “Mama’s Baby, Papa’s Maybe: An American Grammar Book.” Drawing on Spillers, I argue that it is not the black female body but the material persistence and force of that body, expressed through the specificity of black female flesh, that needs to be theorized and resituated directly with respect to current discourses that take up black ontology, black subjectivity and black aesthetics. I expand Spillers’ conclusions to an analysis of how the materiality of this flesh continues to structure, organize and inflect contemporary aesthetic interventions and performances of blackness in the present. The five chapters that comprise the dissertation map a specific set of problems that emerge from a tangled web of gender, race and performance. I argue that black female flesh, forged through desire and violence, objection and subjectivity, becomes the ground for and the space through which black masculinity is fashioned and articulated as open, variable, and contested within diverse artistic practices. Examining the work of these artists, I identify the ways in which they channel this neglected flesh as a site of aesthetic reclamation and recovery. Focusing on the art of assemblage and its techniques of cutting, pasting, quoting and tearing I demonstrate how black identity is always assembled identity. Moreover, I demonstrate how artistic assemblage makes visible the dense and immeasurable compressions of race, gender and iv. sexuality that have accumulated over time. These practices offer us unique opportunities to inhabit this flesh. The dissertation expands upon connections between visibility, solidarity, materiality and femininity, bringing them to light for a critical discussion of the unique expressions and co-productions of blackness and sexuality in the fields of visual art and performance. The project aligns itself with current scholarly work that treats not simply black subjectivity but blackness itself as central to understanding a history of devaluation that subtends the historical construction of modern subjectivity. I demonstrate how the degraded materiality of blackness, linked to the violent rupturing of black flesh, indexes a deeper history of devaluation that becomes the very condition for and means of qualifying and substantiating our definitions of subjectivity and personhood. I conclude by tracing an aesthetic community or aesthetic sociality grounded in the recovered, lost materiality of Spillers’ ungendered black female flesh, a community that I argue, may be glimpsed through particular instantiations of the flesh in art and performance. v.

INTRODUCTION This project is opened by the analytic of black female flesh provided by Hortense Spillers in her monumental essay, “Mama’s Baby, Papa’s Maybe: An American Grammar Book.”1 Drawing from Spillers, I mark the specific moment at which the ungendered complexity of black female flesh emerges as both a problem for thought and a problem for materiality. I argue that it is not the black female body but the material persistence and force of that body, expressed through the flesh, that needs to be theorized and resituated directly with respect to current discourses that take up black ontology, black subjectivity and black aesthetics. I expand Spillers’ conclusions to an analysis of how the materiality of this flesh continues to structure, organize and inflect performances of blackness in the present. “Corporeal Resurfacings: Faustin Linyekula, Nick Cave, and Thornton Dial,” examines art and performance works by three contemporary black artists. The five chapters that comprise the dissertation map a specific set of problems that emerge from a tangled web of gender, race and performance. I argue that black female flesh, forged through desire and violence, objection and subjectivity, becomes the ground for and the space through which black masculinity is fashioned and articulated as open, variable, and contested. I demonstrate how the artistic preparations and performances of black artists are actively constructed and conditioned by the neglected and unforeseeable substance of black femininity. 1 Hortense Spillers, "Mama's Baby, Papa's Maybe: An American Grammar. Book," Diacritics 17, no. 2 (Summer 1987): 65-81. 1 Because my claim is that these performances and artworks express a formidable tangle and arrangement of sexual energies and forces, the project does not explicitly take up black feminism as a direct object of inquiry, though the reproductive agency and line of the black feminine is unmistakably its theme and unarguably guides not only this project but the irreducible quality, form, and materiality of the artistic productions I explore. Examining the work of black feminist theorists including Saidiya Hartman, Angela Davis, June Jordan, Elizabeth Alexander, Sylvia Wynter, and others, I argue that the problems of collectivity, solidarity and visibility these theorists raise are framed by concerns over the material and affective status of blackness. I also draw from a black literary tradition that includes writers such as Toni Morrison, Zora Neale Hurston, Nella Larsen, and Harryette Mullen, in order to fully grasp the representational stakes of these problems that figure as central to the social and political formation of black life. I maintain that in these black feminist literary and theoretical traditions, these concerns do not go unaddressed, but the connections between visibility and materiality, solidarity and affectivity are made explicit in their work from the outset. My project explores the critical linkages and continuities between these concepts in order to think at once about the interdiction and the disclosure of black subjectivity, as movements of identity that may take place and occur in excess of social constructions of race and racial difference. This project expands upon the connections made by these black feminist theorists and writers between visibility, solidarity, materiality and femininity, bringing them to light for a critical discussion of the

  • Entretien Avec Faustin Linyekula
    entretien avec Faustin Linyekula De quelle façon votre parcours singulier et vos créations sont liés à des souvenirs personnels et à l’histoire de votre pays, l’ex-Zaïre, aujourd’hui appelé RDC, République Démocratique du Congo ? Faustin Linyekula : Jusqu’en 1995, et ma rencontre à Nairobi avec Opiyo Okach, mime et danseur, avec lequel j’ai fondé la compagnie Gàara, je me présentais plutôt comme comédien, j’écrivais aussi de petites choses. Tout a commencé à Kisangani, entre 1988 et 1989, avec des amis, dont Vumi, aujourd’hui en prison, et qui m’a donné le désir d’écrire en me faisant lire ses poèmes. Nous étions dans la même classe et nous plaisantions sur le fait qu’il était mon parrain littéraire. Comme beaucoup d’adolescents qui veulent se rebeller, nous nous étions trouvés et formions un groupe d’amis, en partie réunis par l’enseignement et en réaction contre notre professeur de français qui ne jurait que par la poésie de la négritude. C’était selon lui l’aboutissement de toute démarche littéraire, tandis que pour nous, la négritude était dépassée. Nous cherchions ailleurs. Et ce refus nous a ouvert les yeux. Nous avons découvert d’autres écrivains africains plus critiques, notamment envers cette fameuse négritude. Ce qui faisait notre joie, c’était de lire et citer des phrases comme celle de l’écrivain nigérian Wole Soyinka : “Le tigre ne proclame pas sa tigritude, il bondit sur sa proie et la dévore”. Nous rêvions ainsi de changer la littérature et le théâtre africains. Pas moins ! En lisant des poèmes lors des fêtes à l’école, en écoutant la radio.

  • Gregory Maqoma Cion: Requiem of Ravel's Bolero
    Gregory Maqoma Cion: Requiem of Ravel’s Bolero Start Time: 7.45pm Duration: 1 hour 10 mins/no interval Age guidance: 12+ Welcome Welcome to the Barbican and this year’s Dance Umbrella. As we celebrate our long- standing partnership, we are thrilled to bring this stirring performance of Cion: Requiem of Ravel’s Bolero to London. We’re delighted to welcome back dancer and choreographer Gregory Maqoma both to the Barbican and to Dance Umbrella, along with his stunning company Vuyani Dance Theatre and soaring choir. Hot on the heels of Tree, the hit show Maqoma recently choreographed for this year’s Manchester International Festival, he now embodies a professional mourner, inspired by stories written by fellow South African, Zakes Mda. Responding to recent political events both in his own country and around the world, this absorbing production is a thought- provoking lamentation on life and loss. Thank you for joining us this evening. Toni Racklin, Head of Theatre and Dance, Barbican Emma Gladstone, Artistic Director, Dance Umbrella Director’s note Gregory Maqoma The world has changed and we are constantly confronted by the scourge of violence against humans. I can’t help wondering how much the idea of a post-human era has infiltrated our very definition of humanity. Therefore this show’s message of death and its dire consequences must be communicated through a lament in order to tackle a universe where the age-old phenomena of greed, power and religion result in unnatural deaths. Toloki, the professional mourner, weaves through this virtual landscape of dissolution, bringing about catharsis.
