Trace: Performance and its Documents
It seems obvious when talking about performance that 鈥榶ou really have to be there鈥�, to get the story right. While the experience of 鈥榖eing there鈥� adds something particular, it is still possible to experience the work at a remove, whether via a screen, photographic documentation, or even a third-hand retelling of the action. 鈥楾race鈥� draws out relationships between performance and its documents, bringing together new commissions with historical and contemporary works from across the Gallery鈥檚 Collection. The exhibition includes works by John Baldessari; Brown Council; Rebecca Horn; Bruce Nauman, Mike Parr; Campbell Patterson; Qin Ga; Carolee Schneemann; Sriwhana Spong; Song Dong; Ai Weiwei; Gosia Wlodarczak; Erwin Wurm; Zhang Huan, and more.
