Performing Research/ Practicing Performance

Congratulations to all who participated!

Time: Friday June 14, 7:30-10 pm

This special performance event is being organized in conjunction with Performing Research/ Practicing Performance, a special “practice/theory” Spring Session course taught by Dr. Natalie Loveless, Department of Art and Design, funded by a KIAS Interdisciplinary Seminar grant. In this course students examined performance art from theoretical, historical, and practical perspectives. They developed an understanding of performance as critical cultural practice that interrogates connections between time, action, space, and the body. As well as ongoing course work, the students participated in master classes with interdisciplinary performance artists and curators, learning to both write about and do performance art in an expanded context. These performances were the culmination of their course.
