Left performance histories
recollecting artistic practices in Eastern Europe : Buch zur gleichnamigen Ausstellung = based on the exhibition of the same name
by Judit Bodor, Adam Czirak, Astrid Hackel, Beata Hock, and Angelika Richter
Challenging the assumption that the unofficial art scene in state socialist Europe was only subversive and oppositional, this publication offers alternative readings. Left Performance Histories explores artistic positions that, while critical of actually existing socialism, were grounded in Marxist and communist ideas. Performance/art was not a mirror of tristesse but a site of jouissance, where social conventions concerning gender identity, sexuality and beauty were playfully undermined. But what do performances leave in their wake? And how should we situate their legacies in the context of archives, exhibitions and academic and artistic practice? These are some of the questions that this book sets out to answer. --Publisher.
