Research Performance Seminar
Gaskell Bldg 048 Drama Studio 16:oo
Adrian Heathfield
(Roehampton University)
<< Being in Relation>>
In this talk Heathfield discusses the aesthetics of duration and questions the models of time through which performance art has predominantly been interpreted. Taking as its starting point Tehching Hsieh and Linda Montano's Art/Life One Year Performance (1983-1984) in which the artists were tied together for an entire year without touching, Heathfield explores the question of what it means to be in relation. Tracing this problematic back through the co-ordinates of early performance art, the talk emphasizes the dynamics of movement and affect inherent in such relations and their ethical import. This reading then forms the ground for an interrogation of contemporary debates around the cultural value of 'relational aesthetics'.
Adrian Heathfield is a writer and curator working on and in the scenes of live art and performance. He is Professor of Performance and Visual Culture at Roehampton University, London. His latest book, Out of Now: The Lifeworks of Tehching Hsieh, is published by LADA and the MIT Press in March 2009.
