Performing Remains

Artist/Author: Rebecca Schneider | Reference: P1888 | ISBN: 978-0-415-40442-6 | Type: Publication

Explores the role of the fake, the false and the faux in contemporary performance and investigates the aesthetic and political potential of re-enactments.

 

Performing Remains is a dazzling new study exploring the role of the fake, the false and the faux in contemporary performance. Rebecca Schneider argues passionately that performance can be engaged as what remains, rather than what disappears.

 

Across seven essays, Schneider presents a forensic and unique examination of both contemporary and historical performance, drawing on a variety of elucidating sources including the “America” plays of Linda Mussmann and Suzan-Lori Parks, performances of Marina Abramović and Allison Smith, and the continued popular appeal of Civil War reenactments. Performing Remains questions the importance of representation throughout history and today, while boldly reassessing the ritual value of failure to recapture the past and recreate the “original”.
