Re: Towards a minor history of exhibitions and performances

This publication comprises a collection of textual and visual essays based on the exhibition Celebration of the Body, organized by Ingrid and Iain Baxter in 1976, and its reactivation in 2012 in three acts—in Lyon, Saint-Fons and London. In London, the project consisted of a series of lecture-performances in which 21 artists and curators experimented with various strategies of reprise, including re-publication, re-animation, pirated catalogues, judicial enquiry, and memory assisted by video recording. This book marks the transition from performance to print.

With contributions by Jean-Philippe Antoine, Kiff Bamford, Will Holder, Ju Hyun Lee and Ludovic Burel, Émilie Parendeau, Fabien Pinaroli, and many more.
