Curatorial Practices- From Live Art to the Archive

I have been invited to make a presentation about the Oral History aspect of the 'What's Welsh for performance' project at the following event:

'Curatorial Practices - From Live Art to the Archive' at Institute for Advanced Studies, University of Bristol - 30 April 2007

Towards an Oral History of Performance and Live Art in the British Isles is a project that seeks to expand the documentation and archiving of Live Art and Performance in the British Isles from the 1960s onwards by developing and establishing an extensive oral history project over the next 5 years. A network collaboration between the Department of Drama, University of Bristol, the British Library Sound Archive, University of the Arts, London, and the University of Glasgow, this first year functions as an exploratory period during which members of the steering group are hosting a series of working days throughout the British Isles in order to draw upon the expertise and skills of a range of regionally placed scholars, artists, curators and archivists working in the fields of Live Art and Performance. The first of these days takes place at the University of Bristol with the kind support of the Institute of Advanced Studies, BIRTHA, and the AHRC.
