After the presentations at the Montehermoso Cultural Center (Vitoria-Gasteiz, Spain) and Wyspa Institute of Art (Gdansk, Poland), re.act.feminism #2<\/em>_a performing archive <\/em>is being presented in Zagreb, at Galerija Miroslav Kraljević. The exhibition\/launch of the archive containing over 200 works by artists from all over the world will open on Saturday, May 05th, at 7 pm at G-MK.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n re.act.feminism #2_a performing archive is a continually expanding, temporary performance archive travelling through six European countries from 2011 to 2013. It involves feminist, gender-critical and queer performance works by artists and artistic collectives from the 1960s until today, presented through textual, video and photo documentation. Based on collaborations with local partners and collaborators, the archive is continually expanded and animated through exhibitions, educational and discursive programs. The current content of the archive can be viewed at http:\/\/reactfeminism.org\/ and after its Zagreb presentation it will be enriched with new additions primarily by artists from the region.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n The presentation of the archive in Zagreb will be accompanied by discursive programs that foreground and incite local research on (the history of) performance. In the last few years, this has become an increasingly dicussed topic, accompanied by noticeable rise in curatorial, artistic and publishing projects on both the history of performance and curating performance. To what extent are these recent critical, curatorial and artists’ projects shaped by feminist or queer theories? How can these theories transform our understanding of writing histories, or thinking about archives? These are some of the questions that the Zagreb presentation of the re.act.feminism archive will address.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n Two student workshops led by Suzana Marjanic will address topics of the use of animals in performance art, as well as the link between music, noise and performance. Starting from already existing examples from the re.act.feminism archive, the workshops will move on to link them with more local examples and theoretical perspectives. The round-table dicussion Historicizing, re-enacting, and archiving<\/em> pf performance <\/em>(artistic, curatorial and art historical perspectives)<\/em> will take place on May 18, at 5.30 pm and will involve the participation of: Sanja Ivekovic, Bettina Knaup, KONTEJNER, Iva Kovac & Elvis Krstulovic, Jelena Petrovic, Sandra Sterle.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n The workshops and discussions, as well as proposals by the audience will act as a base for introducing new additions to the re.act.feminism archive, therefore encouraging a collaborative process of curating and discussing the archive, whose main curators and selectors are Bettina Knaup and Beatrice E. Stammer.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n We especially invite students and teachers involved in performance art, feminist, gender and queer theories, as well as all interested public, to actively use the archive during its presentation in Zagreb. This includes proposing new programs (open or closed workshops, video screenings, lectures, etc.)<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n The main organizer is the Berlin based organization cross links e.V., dedicated to research and promotion of experimental, gender-critical artistic and cultural practices.
