This book delves into the intricate relationship between performance and the archive, exploring a range of theories and practices that have been shaped by this dynamic interplay. The contributions in the volume examine how the evolving nature of performance practices has necessitated a deeper understanding of how the archive and archival practices can contribute to the richness and complexity of performance work. Through a comprehensive examination of various themes, including artistic engagement with the archive in both conceptual and material terms, the authors explore the diverse forms that archives can take, including physical, virtual, and digital formats. They also investigate the diverse ways in which archives are collected, from publicly accessible collections to privately held treasures, as well as the diverse modes of transmission, such as oral histories, written records, and digital archives.
Furthermore, the volume examines how archives are modeled upon existing structures and the ways in which they can be brought into the discourses and practices of performance making through engagement and contestation. By examining the ways in which performance intersects with the archive, this book offers a fresh perspective on the ways in which artistic practice can be understood and evaluated. It will be of great interest to scholars and researchers in performance studies, media and culture studies, technology and art studies, as well as literature and literary criticism.
