PERFORMANCES - The finality of fixing something by giving it a name.
The book documents a series of
‘performances’, interventions and
observations that took place in a
number of commercial and public
galleries in London throughout
the summer of 2017.
Using the contemporary art
gallery as a stage for a series of
irreverent disruptions claimed as
performances, the project
subtly point at and plays with
the functioning motifs of gallery
infrastructure. Utilizing the endless Helvetica
wayfinding signage, blinking
overhead CCTV, discarded
press releases, unclipped velvet
rope partitions, the bored
invigilator and the ubiquitous
imposing gallery ‘welcome’ desk as material for tounge in cheek happenings.
