RoseLee Goldberg at Boston ICA 3/04

Reflecting Spectacle: Life as Art
06:30 PM
Breaking down barriers between art and life was an underlying motif throughout most of the 20th century, and today, with reality TV and the internet, this edge is more blurred than ever. As part of ‘The World as a Stage,’ which focuses on the theatricality of everyday life and the ways in which live performance and installation draw the viewer into the equation, renowned art historian RoseLee Goldberg, curator and director of the recently launched PERFORMA, the visual art performance biennial in New York, will provide context and background and a glimpse into some of the exciting commissions presented at PERFORMA 07. Joining Goldberg are Mark Tribe, artist and curator; Ann Carlson, choreographer, performer and conceptual artist; and Tim Jackson, director of “Radical Jesters,” a documentary about pranksters, performers, and provocateurs. The panel will respond to Goldberg’s ideas and explore the themes that motivate them to produce their own work.
