Live Art Development Agency Publications Catalogue Live Art Development Agency Publications Catalogue Ron Athey is an iconic figure in the development of contemporary art and Contributors performance. In his frequently bloody portrayals of life, death, crisis, and Ron Athey fortitude in the time of AIDS, Athey calls into question the limits of artistic Homi K. Bhabha practice. These limits enable Athey to explore key themes including: gender, sexuality, SM and radical sex, queer activism, post-punk and Alex Binnie industrial culture, tattooing and body modification, ritual, and religion. Jennifer Doyle Pleading in the Blood: The Art and Performances of Ron Athey presents Tim Etchells the first critical overview of this major artist’s work. It demonstrates how Guillermo Gómez-Peña Athey foresaw and precipitated the central place afforded the body and Matthew Goulish T PLEADING IN THE BLOOD identity politics in art and critical theory in the 1990s and beyond. HE Catherine (Saalfield) Gund PLEADING IN A Adrian Heathfield RT T H E B L O O D Antony Hegarty AND Dominic Johnson T HE A RT AND Amelia Jones P ERFORMANCES Bruce LaBruce P ERFORMANCES Lydia Lunch OF R ON ATHEY Catherine Opie Juliana Snapper e d i t e d b y Julie Tolentino dominic johnson Robert Wilson OF R ON A THEY At long last, Dominic Johnson’s book begins the dauntingly exhilarating task of assessing the richly provocative art of Ron Athey. Incorporating Athey’s own prose version of his extraordinary childhood, astute critical essays, and moving appreciations from other artists, Pleading in the Blood advances Performance Studies and Art History by forging a mode of commentary expansive enough to address an artist who consistently works to expand the intricate drama of human embodiment. Athey’s art edited by dominic johnson refuses the usual distinctions between pleasure and pain, or faith and doubt, and has been both blamed and celebrated for its radical inquiries into the limits and possibilities of queer bodies. Athey emerges from these pages as one of the most compelling theatre artists of our time. Peggy Phelan, Stanford University Honest, pure, generous, uncompromising... a baptism by fire. Robert Wilson, artist and Director of The Watermill Center In his bloody self-obliterations, Ron Athey reveals the profound enigma of the body as a primary location of SELF. His flesh is a source of Life and a source of Death. Athey creates vital images drenched with human violence; his blood is spilled to placate our fear of the unknown and of mortality. Yet his performances are also implicit celebrations.

  • Reading, Because of Love by Andrea Pagnes (Vestandpage) This
    Reading, Because of Love By Andrea Pagnes (VestAndPage) This is not exactly a book review, but my humble thoughts skewed one after the other— a visceral empathic response to Franko’s life story, one of the artists who most inspired my journey through art. When someone tells you of his/her life, exposing his/her heart, every moment assumes its importance, even the most apparently banal. As we get to know a person better, there is a natural process that acts on our affective sphere. It is a mechanism mostly responsible for building friendship and respect. At least metaphorically, it can be said that the people we know and value inhabit a part of our brain. We have a copy of them stored in our memory: not an exact reproduction but series of images valid enough to stimulate our intellect and emotional intelligence. Some books offer very concentrated social information. They are to our social interests like fresh water is to the part of our brain when we are thirsty. For readers who are concerned with anything that has social and causal implications, those books are there to satisfy these interests. They stimulate reflection. Not all books, of course, but above all good essays and novels, and those with the focus on a single character, biographies and autobiographies. I always feel a certain fascination when an author of a book unlocks the doors of his/her world through an uncompromised way of writing. It is like receiving an open invitation to enter inside a place once kept secret and share what is there to be found, and so to imagine, mirror, recognise.

  • Introduction to Art Making- Motion and Time Based: a Question of the Body and Its Reflections As Gesture
    Introduction to Art Making- Motion and Time Based: A Question of the Body and its Reflections as Gesture. ...material action is painting that has spread beyond the picture surface. The human body, a laid table or a room becomes the picture surface. Time is added to the dimension of the body and space. - "Material Action Manifesto," Otto Muhl, 1964 VIS 2 Winter 2017 When: Thursday: 6:30 p.m. to 8:20p.m. Where: PCYNH 106 Professor: Ricardo Dominguez Email: [email protected] Office Hour: Thursday. 11:00 a.m. to Noon. Room: VAF Studio 551 (2nd Fl. Visual Art Facility) The body-as-gesture has a long history as a site of aesthetic experimentation and reflection. Art-as-gesture has almost always been anchored to the body, the body in time, the body in space and the leftovers of the body This class will focus on the history of these bodies-as-gestures in performance art. An additional objective for the course will focus on the question of documentation in order to understand its relationship to performance as an active frame/framing of reflection. We will look at modernist, contemporary and post-contemporary, contemporary work by Chris Burden, Ulay and Abramovic, Allen Kaprow, Vito Acconci, Coco Fusco, Faith Wilding, Anne Hamilton, William Pope L., Tehching Hsieh, Revered Billy, Nao Bustamante, Ana Mendieta, Cindy Sherman, Adrian Piper, Sophie Calle, Ron Athey, Patty Chang, James Luna, and the work of many other body artists/performance artists. Students will develop 1 performance action a week, for 5 weeks, for a total of 5 gestures/actions (during the first part of the class), individually or in collaboration with other students.

  • SPILL Study Room Guide
    Study Room Guide SPILL STUDY BOXES November 2012 In 2012 SPILL Festival of Performance, Ipswich invited the Agency to create a special pop-up version of the Study Room for the SPILL Study Café. For the Study Café the Agency curated a selection of 20 Study Boxes each containing a range of hand picked DVDs, books and other materials around specific themes that we believed would inspire, excite and intrigue artists and audiences attending the Festival in Ipswich. The Study Boxes reflected the work of a huge range of UK and international artists and represent a diversity of themes including issues of identity politics in performance, the explicit body in performance, large scale performance, sound and music in performance, activism and performance, ritual and magic, large scale performance, strange theatre, life long performances, participatory performance, critical writing, non Western performance, do it yourself, trash performance, and many more. Each Study Box contained between four and eight items and could be used for a quick browse or for a day-long study. “Completely brilliant.” (Andy Field, Forest Fringe) “The openness and democracy of the Study Café is essential in a festival where questions of access are so present. It illustrates the need to offer the work of artists up for wider consumption rather than limited to the tight circle of those in the know. Proximity cuts both ways, and as a group of performance makers, it falls to artists, writers and enthusiasts to collapse these referential gaps between audiences. As funding shrinks and organisations falter, the ability to bring those without any history of performance in, to speak to issues outside of the intellectual concerns of Live Art becomes essential for the survival of the form and any community around it.
