Sorry to say Danyel but it looks like some one beat us to that chase and got naked at the Marina Abromovic show...pity, but probably for the best, given her pending charges (and possible addition to the registered sex offenders list.) Looks like this happened early the last day of her performance last month (identified only a MoMA streaker) but now she's speaking out about the "incident." Josephine Decker, talks about the tranformative power of the piece and the show (using a lot of the same language) and the press is quick to dismiss her as either a perturbed (or deeply affected) fan, but I wonder if there isn't more to it. If there is perhaps an underlying critique: can the language of the institution be used to work against it, or in ways that undercut its authority? And if so, was Josephine Decker's action inherently tactical?
Full story here.
