Senga Nengudi – RSVP Performance Piece on Gallery Wall

5 October 2017 · Paris

A large-format photograph of Senga Nengudi's RSVP Performance Piece, 1978/2014, mounted directly on the white gallery wall above a bilingual museum label. The print shows a performer crouched low, radiating rods fanning outward from a central mass — performance art documented and then re-exhibited as object. The documentation becomes the artwork; the gallery wall becomes the stage a second time.
