Newcastle University Performance Research Network asks: What is liveness and why does it matter?
How do bodies interact in space and time?
Is liveness changing?

This exhibition, commissioned by Newcastle University Performance Research Network, explored what ‘liveness’ means in a socially distanced world.

The event will involved brief talks by the artists involved, a livestream of a new live piece by Jonathan Rolph, and an informal discussion about ideas of liveness. 

This exhibition was supported by Newcastle University Humanities Research Institute and Newcastle Institute for Creative Arts Practice. It wass co-curated by Ruth Raynor and Emma Whipday, and co-curated and designed by Issy Tessier. Please contact emma.whipday@ncl.ac.uk with any questions.
