Summary:
Body - art - performance - philosophy This anthology is dedicated to the theme of bodies - in transition, on thresholds, and at the edges of life. They are discussed in terms of their artistic, political, and existential dimensions. The focus of this artistic-philosophical consideration of the intersection of performance practices and life practices is on processes of emergence, survival, and decay, tracing the emergence of bio- and necropolitics. The book looks at performative (life) cycles and their temporal dimension, emphasizing the moment of dwelling at a threshold or transition, thus spinning a relational textual web. Mariella Greil brings together contributions from the fields of performance, activism, psychoanalysis, and contemporary dance, connecting content and form in a unique way. Following on from the publication Being in Contact: Encountering a Bare Body (2021) A multilayered book with a transparent dust jacket, recycled and transparent paper, inserts, and open thread stitching With contributions by Fiona Bannon, Ashon Crawley, Gurur Ertem, Rebecca Hilton, Pavlos Kountouriotis, and others
Körper - Kunst - Performance - Philosophie Diese Anthologie ist dem Themenkomplex Körper gewidmet - Körper, an den Übergängen, Schwellen und Rändern des Lebens, werden in ihrer künstlerischen, politischen und existenziellen Dimension diskutiert. In einer künstlerisch-philosophischen Betrachtung der Überschneidung von Performance Practices und Life Practices geht es um Prozesse des Entstehens, Überlebens und Vergehens, um den Blüten der Bio- und Nekropolitik nachzuspüren. Das Buch nimmt performative (Lebens-)Zyklen und ihre zeitliche Dimension in den Blick, betont mit "Thresholding" den Moment des Verweilens an einer Schwelle oder einem Übergang und spinnt ein relationales Textgeflecht: Mariella Greil versammelt Beiträge aus den Bereichen Performance, Aktivismus, Psychoanalyse und zeitgenössischer Tanz. Inhalt und Form gehen eine besondere Verbindung ein. Anknüpfend an die Publikation Being in Contact: Encountering a Bare Body (2021) Ein vielschichtiges Buchobjekt mit transparentem Schutzumschlag, Recycling- und Transparentpapier, Einlegeblatt und offener Fadenheftung Mit Beiträgen von Fiona Bannon, Ashon Crawley, Gurur Ertem, Rebecca Hilton, Pavlos Kountouriotis u. a.
