Abstract | The editor interviews the two curators of re.act.feminism – performance art of the 1960s & '70s today which started as an exhibition of 24 women artists’ videos, documentation of performances and artefacts from performances shown at Akademie der Künste, Berlin, (13 December 2008- 8 February 2009) and is now a video archive with more than 80 documents. The second iteration of this project created a considerably larger archive of more than 153 artists’ and artists’ collectives’ documented performances and a European tour. This began in 2011 at Centro Cultural Montehermoso Kulturunea, touring to 6 different venues around Europe before returning to Akademie der Künste, Berlin in 2013. They discuss the use of re-enactments and re-appropriations of early feminist performances sometimes by the "original" artist, at others, by a much younger generation of women as a homage. The exhibition became through its conference and expanding programme an opportunity to rethink feminist performance then and now. See Val Phoenix's discussion of the first project in vol. 24 n.paradoxa. |
