Six events held at different places in Berlin in 2010 roused Perform a Lecture, which sheds light on a peculiar subgenre of Performance – the Lecture Performance. This genre grew in relevance in the late noughties, and is central in the work of many artists. “The aim of Perform a Lecture was to interrogate the timeliness of the format and to engage with the politics of the medium. The Lecture Performance occupies an in-between zone, which inevitably – or explicitly – thematizes the site of artistic experience, an alternative access to and dealing with knowledge through art, as well as the exceptional relation between artist and audience. Therefore, we believe that the Lecture Performance is a form which allows us to analyze shifts in the setup of the artistic context and its mechanisms – including the conception of the author and creativity, the institution and its spaces, and the fragile net of relations between the different protagonists in the arts.” (Ellen Blumenstein and Fiona Geuss)
