While performative art practice, with all of its nuances, remains largely fleeting, a significant number of artists, working mainly in interventions, performances, situations, and experiences, have generated a substantial material culture. Whether drafting steps for an action, making lists of performance materials, or giving directions for participants, the use of written language becomes a recurrent element in the enactment of the practice. This exhibition gives center stage to artist books, letters, notes, scripts, and texts produced side-by-side to, or in complicity with, these short-lived gestures.
Artists included: +Maria Alós, +Josefina Báez, +Paco Cao, +Papo Colo, +Billy X. Curmano, +Irina Danilova, +Jean-Ulrick Désert, +Lesley Dill, +Coco Fusco, +Beatrice Glow, +Alicia Grullón, +Guerilla Girls, +Pablo Helguera, +Nancy Hwang, +Alison Knowles, +LuLu LoLo, +Linda Mary Montano, +Pat Oleszko, +Pedro Pietri, +Praxis (Brainard and Delia Carey), +Quintin Rivera-Toro, +Jack Smith, +Elizabeth M.
