Curated by ieke Trinks, this international performance art series and visual art exhibition marks the beginning of Defibrillator’s 10th Anniversary year. Massive in scale and retrospective by nature, What Remains features 40 artists from around the world who responded to an open call to reanimate a collection of objects from performances that took place over the past nine years.
CHAPTER 3: REFERENTIAL | “Referential” relates to participating artists’ personal stories, and experiences. The relics featured in this chapter act as conduits, channeling narratives and associations, referencing biographies and experiences. REFERENTIAL features live installations, a satellite sound-performance event at No-Nation, a Performance Art Program on Saturday, February 22, and our second and final Soup Kitchen Conversation.
MORE INFO
Curator ieke Trinks conceived of a project that would speak to the challenges of keeping records of live performances beyond the dominant and didactic lens of video and photographic documentation. What Remains is structured around proposals from artists to re-interpret the relics in the Defibrillator object archive and provide a framework for reconceptualizing their value and meaning through new works. The presentation of objects will change from week to week, with new pieces added when relics are reactivated as performances or installations. The relics that aren’t yet activated will be on view downstairs in the basement on shelves waiting to be used and displayed throughout the month. The overall idea for the exhibition is to keep it vivid and in a constant flux, just like the nature of performance art itself. Transformation of the space and installation of objects will be done during open gallery hours, underlining the performativity of the accumulation and exhibition of relics. There will also be space given to display the 91 submitted proposals from around the world.
