Description
This book presents an analysis of Regina José Galindo's performance and poetry within a highly developed theoretical framework.
Eccles explores the connection between art, event, and the affects that permeate throughout each of Galindo's performances, channeling the foundations of Alain Badiou's philosophical writings, then mapping the convergence points between political theory, performance, and the social order. Through a scholarly focus on the event, Eccles utilizes Galindo's art to propose a new category within aesthetics: art as “evental.” Through this, the author challenges interpretations of the communal understanding of reality, the limits of social space and temporality.
