Present Perfect with Art 21

June 17 - June 23, 2010

The Present Perfect with Art21, co-presented with PBS and 92YTribeca, is a live-streamed interactive event about the role of collaboration and performance in contemporary art and everyday life. Artists Oliver Herring and Laurie Simmons will explore how elements of performance influence their work and how they incorporate media--from film and video to dance, fashion, and photography--in their creative collaborations.

Join us for a screening of the live event, featuring Herring and Simmons in conversation with Robert MacNeil, selected participants' submissions, and Herring and Simmons performing participant-submitted choreography.
Wednesday, June 23 at 7 p.m.

A combination of Oliver Herring-inspired choreography and collaborative fun! 

Responding to Oliver Herring’s Three Day Weekend ‘seed choreography,’ staff and students at University Galleries of Illinois State University, generated their own take on performance and collaboration.

University Galleries' participation in The Present Perfect is coordinated by Kendra Paitz and Tony Preston-Schreck.
