Performed in the Present Tense
@ Art Theory & Practice at Northwestern University
Northwestern University, 640 Lincoln St, Evanston, Illinois 60208
Opening Friday, April 8th, from 7PM - 9PM
Performed in the Present Tense is a two-day symposium that investigates the contemporary legacy of Charlotte Moorman’s performances and her dedication to creating forums for experimental, collaborative, and boundary-breaking artistic practices. The symposium features artists, curators, and scholars who have engaged with (re) performance, performance scores, and the curating of performance art.
Opening night presents an evening of (re)performances featuring Ira S. Murfin and Stephan Moore’s interpretation of John Cage’s Indeterminacy (1958), Didier Morelli’s interpretation of Geoff Hendricks’s Erase Everything (1964), and Elliot Mercer’s interpretation of Yvonne Rainer’s Trio A (1965), followed by a conversation with Noémie Solomon (Brown University).
