Emergency INDEX - CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS
Performance is a field that transcends disciples. Because of the wide range of practices that constitute contemporary performance, and because performance is notoriously difficult to document, it has come to pass that performance is a field invisible to itself. Emergency INDEX is a new book created to address the lack of a coherent document of contemporary performance.
You are invited to contribute to Emergency INDEX, an annual print publication documenting performance in the words of its practitioners. INDEX seeks to include performances of all kinds, with a focus on the problems driving the work and the innovations used to address them. Keywords will be indexed, linking disparate works. In this way, INDEX will create a yearly compendium to define the state of performance through the multiplicity of contemporary practices, and give artists, audiences and scholars exposure to performance outside their circles.
To document your performance on our pages, proceed to www.emergencyindex.com.
The Live Art Development Agency is a Partner Organization of Emergency INDEX.
NOTE, February 2012: Submissions are now closed and will reopen in April 2012.
