{"product_id":"performance-12","title":"Performance","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book focuses on performance and performance-based artworks as seen\u003cbr\u003ethrough the lens of conservation, which has long been overlooked in the larger\u003cbr\u003etheoretical debates about whether and how performance remains.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnraveling the complexities involved in the conservation of performance,\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePerformance: The Ethics and the Politics of Conservation and Care \u003c\/i\u003e(vol. 1)\u003cbr\u003ebrings this new understanding to bear in examining performance as an object of\u003cbr\u003estudy, experience, acquisition, and care. In so doing, it presents both theoretical\u003cbr\u003eframeworks and functional paradigms for thinking about—and enacting—the\u003cbr\u003econservation of performance. Further, while the conservation of performance is\u003cbr\u003eundertheorized, performance is nevertheless increasingly entering the art\u003cbr\u003emarket and the museum, meaning that there is an urgent need for discourse on\u003cbr\u003ehow to care for these works long-term. In recent years, a few pioneering conservators,\u003cbr\u003ecurators, and scholars have begun to create frameworks for the longterm\u003cbr\u003ecare of performance. This volume presents, explicates, and contextualizes\u003cbr\u003etheir work so that a larger discourse can commence. It will thus serve the needs\u003cbr\u003eof conservation students and professors, for whom literature on this subject is\u003cbr\u003esorely needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis interdisciplinary book thus implements a novel rethinking of performance\u003cbr\u003ethat will challenge and revitalize its conception in many fields, such as art history,\u003cbr\u003etheater, performance studies, heritage studies, and anthropology.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54256248619352,"sku":"9781032314877","price":192.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781032314877.jpg?v=1770475540","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/performance-12","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
