Bringing together contributors from dance; theatre; visual studies; and art history; Perform; Repeat; Record addresses the conundrum of how live art is positioned within history. Set apart from other art forms in that it may never be performed in precisely the same way twice; ephemeral artwork exists both at the time of its staging and long after in the memories of its spectators and their testimonies; as well as in material objects; visual media and text. These multiple occurrences and iterations offer new critical possibilities for thinking and writing the histories of performance. Among the artists; theorists; and historians who contributed to this volume are Marina Abramovic; Guillermo Goacute;mez-Pentilde;a; Rebecca Schneider; Boris Groys; Jane Blocker; Carolee Schneemann; Tehching Hsieh; Orlan; Tilda Swinton; and Jean-Luc Nancy
