Author: Barbara Büscher, Franz Anton Cramer, Ulrike Hanstein (eds.)
Aesthetic, documentary and historiographical processes are intertwined increasingly in the arts. 'Relational Acts' explores the complex relationships between performance arts, archival processes, and exhibition practices. The contributions to this interdisciplinary volume examine the relationships established via embodied forms of transmission, media-technical methods of documentation, or processes of recording, selection and presentation. Performance practices and their documentation are explored as knowledge-creating, collaborative spheres of action. The authors from the fields of art and science write about the materials, media and concepts of documentation. In doing so, they contribute to a media-theoretical discourse on contemporary art.
