"Celebrating ten years since the founding of the historic Performa biennial in 2005, Performa 15 once again explored the most exciting innovations in contemporary visual arts, dance, film, radio, sound and architecture. This edition brought together a total of more than 30 artists from 12 countries around the world-premiering new works by artists Robin Rhode (South Africa), Pauline Curnier Jardin (France/The Netherlands), Edgar Arceneaux (United States) and Erika Vogt (United States), Performa alums Jérôme Bel (France) and Jesper Just (Denmark), and Francesco Vezzoli (Italy) in special collaboration with dancer David Hallberg (United States), among many others. Performa 15 documents all of Performa's programming along with significant texts from leading art historians and curators. Fully illustrated with works and performance photos, and featuring interviews with the curators and artists, Performa 15 captures a critical juncture in the evolution of performance art and the world's leading performance biennial"--
