As her first comprehensive publication, this catalogue surveys the multi-facetted oeuvre of the Greek artist Georgia Sagri. It collects both current documentation of Sagri’s work and rich archival material since 1999; together they are juxtaposed against an interview conducted with Silvia Federici, and a conversation between the artist, Bettina Funcke, and John Kelsey.

The moving image has irrevocably redefined our experience and construction of history. In the contemporary economy of time, history has become an image in motion, a series of events animated and performed through various media. Analyzing a variety of films, video pieces, and performances, Sven Lütticken evaluates the impact that our changing experience of time has had on the actualization of history in the present.

Throughout the 1980s and early ’90s, Kim Gordon—widely known as a founding member of the influential band Sonic Youth—produced a series of writings on art and music. Ranging from neo-Conceptual artworks to broader forms of cultural criticism, these rare texts are brought together in this volume for the first time.

Performing the Sentence brings into dialogue the ways that “performative thinking” has developed in different national and institutional contexts, within different disciplines in the arts, and the conditions under which it has developed in experimental art schools. This anthology is a collection of twenty-one essays and conversations that weave in and out of the two key areas of research and teaching within performative fine arts.

This catalogue is published on the occasion of the two group exhibitions “The only performances that make it all the way…” and “Yes, but is it performable? Investigations on the Performative Paradox” which were shown at Künstlerhaus, Halle für Kunst & Medien in 2013 and 2016.
