This first volume of ‘Performance Art’ is the personal story of Jeff Nuttall’s life in the arts, especially in performance work: amusing, polemical and controversial.

This item is part of the ‘Glimpses of before: 1970s UK Performance Art’ Study Room Guide by Helena Goldwater (P2497)

This publication documents the development of British theatre from 1968 to 1973. 

A book about theatricality and spectatorship in the early twenty-first century. In a wide-ranging analysis that draws upon theatrical, visual and philosophical approaches, it asks how spectators and audiences negotiate the complexities and challenges of contemporary experimental performance arts.

This catalogue documents the multimedia performance project “Situation Rooms” – a multiple simultaneous cinema, augmented reality, and three-dimensional theatre experience.

Printed version of the 1830 novella by Honoré de Balzac, edited by Jim Manis and translated by Clara Bell and others.

A limited edition set of thirteen beautifully designed cards, each by a different artist. The thirteen artists have come together to create a programme of imaginary events for the Battersea Arts Centre’s Grand Hall, destroyed in a major fire in march 2015, to help contribute to the rebuilding process and to celebrate the building itself.

Complete with case studies, exercises and questions for further study, the book introduces students to the work of disabled artists and their allies, and explores artful responses to living with physical, cognitive, emotional or sensory difference.

The book encompasses unusual and cutting-edge foods, radical dining events, “kitchen laboratory” experiments, food sculptures and other documentation of the transient moments that make up this field of experimentation’, as well as a study of the connections between dining, theatre and ritual, and a survey of recent research in science and technology, and how this may impact on how we make, eat and perceive food.
