Performing for the camera
Baker, Simon, Performing for the camera, Tate Publishing, London 2016 Abstract The book examines three distinct strands of photographic practice: the documentation of performance works, by artists such as Yves Klein, Yayoi Kusama and Merce Cunningham; how performers and photographers have worked collaboratively, such as Nadar and the mime artist Charles Deburau, or Eikoh Hosoe and the choreographer Tatsumi Hijikata; and the work of photographers who have a strong performative element to their practice, such as Charles Ray, Boris Mikhailov and Erwin Wurm. It further explores the construction of self-identity in the work of artists such as Samuel Fosso, Lee Friedlander, Tomoko Sawada, Cindy Sherman and Andy Warhol, as well…

Reactivations: Essays on Performance and Its Documentation
Auslander, Philip, Reactivations: Essays on Performance and Its Documentation, University of Michigan Press, 2018 Abstract Most people agree that witnessing a live performance is not the same as seeing it on screen; however, most of the performances we experience are in recorded forms. Some aver that the recorded form of a performance necessarily distorts it or betrays it, focusing on the relationship between the original event and its recorded versions. By contrast, Reactivations focuses on how the audience experiences the performance, as opposed to its documentation. How does a spectator access and experience a performance from its documentation? What is the value of performance documentation? The book treats performance documentation…

The Theatre of Photography
Anderson, Joel; Leister, Wiebke, The Theatre of Photography, Taylor and Francis, 2018 Abstract Monographic issue of the journal “Photogrpahy and Culture” dedicated to Theatre and Photography. Taking as a starting point the opposition of this journal’s title, this introduction takes the form of a dialogue that is also an encounter between photography and theatre, a vantage point from which conceptual frameworks can be challenged and even collapsed. In the domains of photography and of theatre, much is made of artifice, authenticity, likeness, and liveness. Photography criticism has often emphasized the possibility or impossibility of veracity, the truthfulness or deceptiveness of photographs, with performance seemingly offering one escape route. Theatre, from…

True Fictions: Visionary Photography from the 70s to the Present
Guadagnini, Walter, True Fictions: Visionary Photography from the 70s to the Present, Silvana, 2021 Abstract Il volume è dedicato al fenomeno della staged photography, la tendenza che a partire dagli anni ottanta ha rivoluzionato il linguaggio fotografico. Attraverso oltre cento opere, il volume racconta come la fotografia abbia saputo raggiungere tra la fine del XX e gli inizi del XXI secolo vertici di fantasia e di invenzione prima affidate quasi esclusivamente al cinema e alla pittura. Pesci rossi che invadono le stanze, cascate di ghiaccio nei deserti, città inventate, Marilyn Monroe e Lady D. che fanno la spesa insieme: tutto questo può accadere grazie a veri e propri set cinematografici…

Image Photograph
Lafia, Marc, Image Photograph, punctum books, Brooklyn, NY 2015 Abstract We no longer live in the society of the spectacle, passively seeing the world. Now we perform our very own spectacle in a society that demands it at every turn. We’ve become advertisements of ourselves, our own PR agents, continually putting on a performance and measuring it hour by hour. This is no longer the society of the spectacle but the society of performance. All events have become a pretense to create the image, to orchestrate an image of images that is us. We believe the image confers on us a kind of immortality: just as the artist believes her…
