Performing Histories: Live Artworks Examining the Past

Presented by Museum of Modern Art (MoMA)


The Department of Media and Performance Art presents a series of performances under the title 'Performing Histories: Live Artworks Examining the Past,' held in collaboration with the exhibitions 'Performing Histories (1) and (2)', 'Inventing Abstraction, 1910-1925' and 'Tokyo 1955-1970: A New Avant-Garde.' These performances constitute a "live" response to the contexts of the three exhibitions, highlighting various artistic practices of engaging with history. A wide range of performances are included, including dance, music, theater, and performance art--all anchored in history and resonating with the three related exhibitions and the state of performance art in general. The series starts on September 12, 2012, with a performance by Andrea Fraser, and continues until spring 2013.
