The term ‘performative’ has crept into the vocabulary of the visual arts from its origins in the philosophy of language as speech acts. Calling objects or situations into being as a performative, enabling gesture has become a regular strategy for makers and doers of art.
This edition profiles artists working with dance and performance to broadly canvass ideas of the social in contemporary art.
