Notes
Eve gives suicide a go; Her attempts are a foolish performance for the camera. This film is the full version that appears in Act One of Trans-Acts. Trans-Acts casts the Artist in the role of three necessary transgressors: the Dunce, the Devil & the Fool or seen another way as Sad Eve, Bad Eve & Mad Eve.

André Stitt: Dingo - A treatment towards a new communionism
Over three days in August 2007 Cardiff-based performance artist André Stitt undertook a major ‘akshun’ work at Artspace. Utilizing Joseph Beuys’ famous “I Like America and America Likes Me (or ‘Coyote’)” performance of 1974 as a template through which a performative engagement with acts of arrival and the attendant trauma of colonialism could be developed, Stitt shared a caged-in area of the gallery with a dingo, exploring forms of possible connection between the human figure and dog. This book provides extensive documentation and critical reflection upon one of the most significant and sustained performance works undertaken in Sydney in recent years.
