Staging the documentary. Babette Mangolte and the curatorial ‘dispositif’ of performance’s histories
Clausen, Barbara (2014) , S. 1-12
Barbara Clausen thinks about the relationship between experience and knowledge in curating performance art. She will in particular explain her curatorial work on Babette Mangolte''s first international solo exhibition which took place at the VOX center for contemporary art in Montreal in 2013. This exhibition and film retrospective showcased Mangolte''s various practices and modes of production, as one of the key chroniclers of 1970s performance in dance, visual arts and theater, ranging from early archival works to new site specific multi-media installations. Clausen will consider the complexity of Mangolte''s practices in light of the current processes of change that are taking hold in the visual politics of performance arts’ past and present.
