Presenting choreographed works or concepts through still photography
Bates, Lisa M., «Presenting choreographed works or concepts through still photography».

An in depth look into various past photography figures and also choreographer/photographer relationships serves as the base for further developing the…

Never Mere Observation: Performance, Technology, and the Act of Looking
Krauter, Sarah G. Marsh, «Never Mere Observation: Performance, Technology, and the Act of Looking». Ph.D., , Ann Arbor, United States 2017 Abstract Herbert Blau, in defining the act of looking as “never mere observation”, describes how the action of the visual faculty is not simply about seeing, but the engagement in an active, circulatory exchange between culture and viewer. Never Mere Observation posits a dialectical relationship between spectatorship, performance, and emerging technologies. In this study, my aim is to track a pattern of ideas and use to assert the possible connections between the evolution of technology and the evolution of narrative structure. The biomechanical function of the act of looking…

Body, Camera, Action: Understanding the Metamorphosis of Performance Art in Japan
Melnikova, Daria, «Body, Camera, Action: Understanding the Metamorphosis of Performance Art in Japan». Ph.D., , Ann Arbor, United States 2018 Abstract This dissertation is a study of the specific medium “performance art” (pafōmansu āto) in Japan, situated in the transnational and comparative context of the 1960s and the 2010s. Extensively drawing on the art criticism of Akiyama Kuniharu, Ishiko Junzō, Sawaragi Noi, Tōno Yoshiaki, Tone Yasunao, and Yoshida Yoshie, this research investigates the discursive space of performance that constructs a multiplicity of historical terms such as happenings, events, festivals, spectacle. In the 1960s, the fashion of happenings (initially coined by American artist Allan Kaprow) spread outside of artistic institutions such…

Circulating the event: the social life of performance documentation, 1965–1975
Santone, Jessica Lynne, «Circulating the event: the social life of performance documentation, 1965–1975». Ph.D., , Ann Arbor, United States 2011 Abstract This dissertation reevaluates the relationship between performance acts and documents by considering the way documentation was understood within the time of an event. Expanding on Alain Badiou’s theory of evental ‘Twoness’ in Being and Event, I develop an approach to performance that always takes documents and performance acts together, as corresponding producers of an art event. Looking at acts and documents together, one notices how the type of repetition enacted between them allows for variation and novelty in an event. One important implication of this approach is a stronger…

Théatralité: Analyse d’une notion critique à travers trois média et époques (roman, peinture et cinéma aux XVIIIe, XIXe et XXe siècles)
Polanz, Dorothee, «Théatralité: Analyse d’une notion critique à travers trois média et époques (roman, peinture et cinéma aux XVIIIe, XIXe et XXe siècles)». Ph.D., , Ann Arbor, United States 2010 Abstract I argue that the notion of “theatricality,” though it has been frequently used as an interpretive tool in critical discourse on various artistic and literary forms (novels, poetry, painting, fashion, film, etc.) remains ill defined. Moreover, it appears obvious that theatricality does not, in fact, manifest itself in the same way in all genres and media where critics attempt to use it as an interpretive tool. A double question thus informs my research: how legitimate is the use of…

Mediated Presence: Performance Art and Technology
Khalifeh, Soulaf, «Mediated Presence: Performance Art and Technology». , , Abstract The whole tendency of modern communication whether in the press, in advertising or in the high arts is towards participation in a process, rather than the apprehension of concepts. And this major revolution, intimately linked to technology, is one whose consequences have not begun to be studied although they have begun to be felt.” Recalling McLuhan’s words, this paper is an attempt to study the effects and consequences of technology and how it allowed performance artists greater flexibility in experimenting with space, time and representation, engaging in a social and institutional critique. The pertinent questions here are: how are…
