Title A name given to the resource Standing In, 1987, multimedia performance Description An account of the resource Lynn Book’s original multimedia performance work, “Standing In”, was included in “Performance Chicago”, a co-curated event by the Renaissance Society, University of Chicago and the State of Illinois Gallery. Book, along with two other performance artists, Hudson and James Grigsby, presented their work at Beacon Street Theater, Chicago in 1987. In this project Book, using feminist theoretical frameworks, highlighted themes of presence and absence by way of multiple plays on the idea of the stand-in – someone or something replacing something else. Book’s increasing interrogation of the problem of Woman as representation was finding form here, and later with greater nuance in 3 works that ensued: “Legacy”, “Physical Vision” and “Gorgeous Fever”. Her emerging years-long collaboration with experimental filmmaker Sharon Couzin, finds her in a rare appearance as performer. Couzin herself was standing in as a director/shooter, as well as a complexly gendered lecturer on poiesis (bringing something into existence that didn’t exist before). Simultaneously, Couzin was collaborating with Book to create a 16mm film entitled, “Bouquet”, which premiered at the Museum of Modern Art, New York. Footage from this film was projected on the white toga Book wore here, and again in the performance, “Legacy”, which also ‘borrowed’ the ‘jazz singer number’ that Book lip synched to her recorded voice. E. Jay Sims, another collaborator and cohort across several projects from the time, also performed, as well as Werner Herterich as male stand-in for director of the performance, who was, of course, a woman (Book). Credits: Lynn Book, artist, director, performer, writer, co-composer, staging Sharon Couzin, filmmaker, performer, writer E. Jay Sims, performer Lou Mallozzi, sound designer, co-composer Lighting designer unknown Moving Image A series of visual representations imparting an impression of motion when shown in succession.

Title A name given to the resource Standing In, 1987, Chicago, Beacon Street Theater, project video documentation 01 Description An account of the resource Lynn Book’s original multimedia performance work, “Standing In”, was informed by feminist and film theories to question and disrupt cultural constructions of the feminine. In particular, Book highlighted themes of presence and absence by way of multiple plays on the idea of the stand-in, someone or something replacing something else. By extension, Book’s increasing interrogation of the problem of Woman as representation was finding form here, and later with greater nuance, in several following works. Her emerging years-long collaboration with experimental filmmaker Sharon Couzin, begins with her performing a flimmaker, as well as a complexly gendered lecturer on poiesis – bringing something into existence that didn’t exist before. E.Jay Sims, another collaborator and cohort across several projects from the time, also performed, as well as Werner Herterich as stand-in for a male director of the ‘show’ on display for the audience. This video documentation of the performance, a higher resolution, runs about 43 minutes.

Title A name given to the resource Standing In, 1987, multimedia performance Description An account of the resource Lynn Book’s original multimedia performance work, “Standing In”, was included in “Performance Chicago”, a co-curated event by the Renaissance Society, University of Chicago and the State of Illinois Gallery. Book, along with two other performance artists, Hudson and James Grigsby, presented their work at Beacon Street Theater, Chicago in 1987. In this project Book, using feminist theoretical frameworks, highlighted themes of presence and absence by way of multiple plays on the idea of the stand-in – someone or something replacing something else. Book’s increasing interrogation of the problem of Woman as representation was finding form here, and later with greater nuance in 3 works that ensued: “Legacy”, “Physical Vision” and “Gorgeous Fever”. Her emerging years-long collaboration with experimental filmmaker Sharon Couzin, finds her in a rare appearance as performer. Couzin herself was standing in as a director/shooter, as well as a complexly gendered lecturer on poiesis (bringing something into existence that didn’t exist before). Simultaneously, Couzin was collaborating with Book to create a 16mm film entitled, “Bouquet”, which premiered at the Museum of Modern Art, New York. Footage from this film was projected on the white toga Book wore here, and again in the performance, “Legacy”, which also ‘borrowed’ the ‘jazz singer number’ that Book lip synched to her recorded voice. E. Jay Sims, another collaborator and cohort across several projects from the time, also performed, as well as Werner Herterich as male stand-in for director of the performance, who was, of course, a woman (Book).
