Short film of performances at Live Culture.
An anthology from High Performance Magazine 1978 – 1998.
Features the work of 42 solo artists spanning the century-from Beatrice Herford in 1869 to Dawn Akemi Saito in 1994. Each artists’ work is introduced by a journalist, artist, critic, agent, producer or educator who is intimately familiar with the material and its links to other forms such as vaudeville, theatre, cabaret, music, standup comedy, poetry, the visual arts and dance.
Leading artists and thinkers assess the relevance of live art now, its impact within the visual arts and the broader cultural sphere.
