ARE WE THERE YET? Study Room Guide on Live Art and Feminism Live Art Development Agency INDEX 1. Introduction 2. Lois interviews Lois 3. Why Bodies? 4. How We Did It 5. Mapping Feminism 6. Resources 7. Acknowledgements INTRODUCTION Welcome to this Study Guide on Live Art and Feminism curated by Lois Weaver in collaboration with PhD candidate Eleanor Roberts and the Live Art Development Agency. Existing both in printed form and as an online resource, this multi-layered, multi-voiced Guide is a key component of LADA’s Restock Rethink Reflect project on Live Art and Feminism. Restock, Rethink, Reflect is an ongoing series of initiatives for, and about, artists who working with issues of identity politics and cultural difference in radical ways, and which aims to map and mark the impact of art to these issues, whilst supporting future generations of artists through specialized professional development, resources, events and publications. Following the first two Restock, Rethink, Reflect projects on Race (2006-08) and Disability (2009- 12), Restock, Rethink, Reflect Three (2013-15) is on Feminism – on the role of performance in feminist histories and the contribution of artists to discourses around contemporary gender politics. Restock, Rethink, Reflect Three has involved collaborations with UK and European partners on programming, publishing and archival projects, including a LADA curated programme, Just Like a Woman, for City of Women Festival, Slovenia in 2013, the co-publication of re.act.feminism – a performing archive in 2014, and the Fem Fresh platform for emerging feminist practices with Queen Mary University of London. Central to Restock, Rethink, Reflect Three has been a research, dialogue and mapping project led by Lois Weaver and supported by a CreativeWorks grant. -
Heiser, Jörg. “Do It Again,” Frieze, Issue 94, October 2005
Heiser, Jörg. “Do it Again,” Frieze, Issue 94, October 2005. In conversation with Marina Abramovic Marina Abramovic: Monica, I really like your piece Hausfrau Swinging [1997] – a video that combines sculpture and performance. Have you ever performed this piece yourself? Monica Bonvicini: No, although my mother said, ‘you have to do it, Monica – you have to stand there naked wearing this house’. I replied, ‘I don’t think so’. In the piece a woman has a model of a house on her head and bangs it against a dry-wall corner; it’s related to a Louise Bourgeois drawing from the ‘Femme Maison’ series [Woman House, 1946–7], which I had a copy of in my studio for a long time. I actually first shot a video of myself doing the banging, but I didn’t like the result at all: I was too afraid of getting hurt. So I thought of a friend of mine who is an actor: she has a great, strong body – a little like the woman in the Louise Bourgeois drawing that inspired it – and I knew she would be able to do it the right way. Jörg Heiser: Monica, after you first showed Wall Fuckin’ in 1995 – a video installation that includes a static shot of a naked woman embracing a wall, with her head outside the picture frame – you told me one critic didn’t talk to you for two years because he was upset it wasn’t you. It’s an odd assumption that female artists should only use their own bodies. -

Slow Expansion. Neomodernism As a Postnational Tendency in Contemporary Cinema
TRANSMISSIONS: THE JOURNAL OF FILM AND MEDIA STUDIES 2016, VOL.1, NO. 2, PP. 100-117. Miłosz Stelmach Jagiellonian University Slow Expansion. Neomodernism as a Postnational Tendency in Contemporary Cinema Abstract The article presents a theoretical overview of a distinctive strand of contemporary cinema identified in the text as neomodernism (as defined by Rafał Syska). It focuses on works of filmmakers such as Béla Tarr, Aleksander Sokurov or Tsai Ming-liang and their followers and tries to present them as a part of informal postnational artistic movement developing in cinema from mid-90s onward. The aim of the article is to examine critically the journalistic and reductive category of slow cinema usually applied to auteurs mentioned above and propose term more burdened with cultural connotations and thus open for nuanced historical and theoretical studies. The particular attention is given to the international character of neomodernism that negates the traditional boundaries of national schools as well as the division of centre-periphery in world cinema shaped by the first wave of postwar modernist cinema. Neomodernism rather moves the notion of centre to the institutional level with the growing importance of festivals, film agents and public fund that take the place of production companies as the main actors in the transnational net of art-house cinema circulation. Key words: contemporary cinema, modernism, slow cinema, postnational cinema, neomodernism Introduction Over the course of the last two decades, the debate over cinema and modernism has taken the form of a dialectical struggle since two distinctive theoretical standpoints emerged, of which the more traditional and still dominant is rooted in art history and literary studies of the post-war years. -

Konovaltsia St., Kyiv, Ukraine, 01133 For citation: Petrova, I. (2020). Metamodernism as a Concept of Cultural Studies. Issues in Cultural Studies, (36), 14-23. doi: https://doi.org/10.31866/2410-1311.36.2020.221039. Abstract The essence of metamodernism as a concept of cultural studies is analysed in the article. The article points out the expediency of conceptualization of the cultural features of the (post) postmodernism era, on the one hand, and the need to develop adequate approaches, different from the traditional ones, for the implementation of a cultural analysis of a new research direction and modern world trends, on the other. The purpose of the article deals with a critical understanding of metamodernism as a contemporary concept of cultural studies. Comparative, analytical, and systematic methods were used to achieve the research objectives. The application of these methods allows us to substantiate the intertextuality of traditional cultural strategies that encourage the creation of a new discursive field; to “read” the changing and unpredictable cultural processes of the 21st century; to analyse the significant issues of metamodernism in the context of the relevance of the present-day needs. -

Artspace Exhibition Explores 'Performance Now'
KCUR (89.3 FM) (kcur.org) Sept. 5, 2013 Page N/A Artspace Exhibition Explores ‘Performance Now’ By Laura Spencer Credit Courtesy of the artist Clifford Owens, "Anthology (Maren Hassinger)," 2011, HD video, 25 min., 35 sec. A traveling exhibition at the H&R Block Artspace, Performance Now, includes performance art from the last decade, with work by artists spanning generations, such as Marina Abramović, Yael Bartana, and Clifford Owens. There’s a 12-hour performance of a 3 ½ minute aria; a slightly-scripted soap opera filmed in Ikea stores; and a Claymation film about urban violence. There are also re-performances, or re-creations of famous works from the past. Performance art, then and now Performance Now was organized by RoseLee Goldberg, the artistic director and founder of Performa, a performance art biennial in New York. Goldberg literally wrote the book on performance art, a seminal work called Performance Art: From Futurism to the Present (1979). "She really is the major thinker and the major organizer of performance art events," says H&R Block Artspace director and curator Raechell Smith. "She's been thinking about this and doing this work for a number of years. So I really think she’s the source." Smith says in the 1960s and '70s, much of performance art was endurance-based. Artists put themselves through extreme actions – often requiring the full engagement or attention of an audience. "The way performance art is integrated into a practice by most contemporary artists is very different. So it looks different, and it lives in the world in a variety of ways now," she says. -
Moving on to the Past
Moving on to the Past Metamodernism in Neo-Victorian Biofiction MA Thesis Rozemarijn Zwitser MA Literary Studies: European Literature First Supervisor: Dr. D. Kersten Second Supervisor: Dr. C.J.J. Louttit 1 October 2020 Zwitser | 4361741 | 2 ABSTRACT Door Metamodernisme in drie neo-Victoriaanse bioficties te bestuderen, toont dit onderzoek aan dat het Metamodernisme begrepen kan worden als een culturele logica die zowel verder gaat van als voortbeweegt met het Postmodernisme. Daarnaast beargumenteert deze scriptie hoe hedendaagse neo-Victoriaanse biofictie met de inherente Postmodernistische kwaliteiten van pastiche en hyperrealiteit niet langer enkel als Postmodernistisch kan worden geïnterpreteerd. De bioficties in dit onderzoek demonstreren hoe deze kwaliteiten als Metamodernistisch kunnen worden geïnterpreteerd. De resultaten van dit onderzoek tonen aan dat een academische re-evaluatie van ‘rewriting’ aan de orde is. Het onderzoek vult een leemte in het academische veld van biofictie, neo-Victorian studies, en Metamodernisme, omdat een dergelijk onderzoek waarbij deze drie aspecten worden gecombineerd nog niet heeft plaatsgevonden. Daarnaast biedt deze scriptie ook een mogelijke methode die in vervolgonderzoek naar Metamodernisme in hedendaagse literatuur kan worden overgenomen en geperfectioneerd. KEY WORDS Metamodernism, neo-Victorianism, biofiction, Modernism, Postmodernism, rewriting Zwitser | 4361741 | 3 CONTENTS ABSTRACT ............................................................................................................................. -
