Author: Smith, Barbara T.
A pioneer of the performance art movement of the late 1960s, Barbara T. Smith has long produced work that explores the self, sexuality, gender roles & spiritual sustenance. Smith’s first ever comprehensive catalogue features an illustrated chronology of Smith’s life & artwork compiled by curator Jenelle Porter. It also includes essays by Gloria Sutton, Catherine Taft & Pietro Rigolo, who elaborate upon Smith’s work as it relates to new technologies, ecofeminism and the archive.While her performances have received critical attention, the objects Smith has made over nearly 60 years - many for, or as a result of, performances - are less known. These include her radical Xerox works, assemblages, sculptures, artist’s books, drawings, paintings, photographs and videos.
