Birkbeck University, Masterclass: Performing Theory with Michelle Williams Gamaker

Performing Theory is a series of masterclasses that aim to present a wide variety of approaches to the artistic production of ideas in audio-visual form. We are inviting performance artists and moving image makers whose work (written, performed, filmed) manifests theoretical innovation. The latter part of the 20th century produced body of Anglo-American writing and work that are recognised today as canonical as with Hollis Frampton, Maya Deren, Peter Gidal for example. With this series we want to produce a sample of this kind of interplay between ideas and creating that are underway today. In so doing, we hope to open the field of play between theory and works to create new conversations.
Please join us for a Master Class with Michelle Williams Gamaker who will be discussing her work as well as addressing issues around the making of work in the contemporary art world.

Performing Theory is conceived and convened by Prof. Rachel Moore (Goldsmiths) for CHASE in collaboration with BIMI and LUX.
