Borderlines IV: Resisting, Persisting, Performing is the fourth annual interdisciplinary conference hosted by De Montfort University's Performance Research Group. With papers, presentations and performances from across Drama, Dance, Film, and Art History and Visual Culture, this conference investigates performance’s capacity to defiantly, if carefully, withstand and investigate the enforced construction or policing of borderlines. In so doing, it will engage with: bodily borders and resistance to ownership; exclusion, restriction and borders; enforced or resisted gendered borders; dynamics of power and navigating geographical, environmental and spatial borderlines; acting as resistant witness or revolutionary agent to the modulating or enforcing of borders; invisible borderlines and legislative structures; extending or troubling borders through technology or different media; impenetrable or porous borderlines between body and voice or text and action; transgressing disciplinary borderlines; reconfiguring / reviewing the borders between life and death; processes and techniques that create or dismantle borders.
