Title A name given to the resource SongSpot, multimedia installation and performance Description An account of the resource SongSpot was an invitational multimedia installation project developed by Lynn Book for Art Stays 2010, an international festival of contemporary art in Ptuj, Slovenia. During the 2 week residency, the artist engaged the town and people through what she calls ‘voicing bodies’. Book cultivated intimate connections by singing, sounding, speaking and listening with people and place in both staged and accidental encounters, building new mobile architectures of the sound of living lives together and in between. The gallery installation, or the SongSpot Spot, was a site for translating those experiences and for proposing resonant spaces for experiment and reflection. Audio, image and material artifacts from the city-wide activation accumulated each day to develop an imprint of these concentrated spots – public, private, forgotten, silent and full of becoming. Viewers to the exhibition were invited to exchange songs for spots cut from the fabric of clothes they were wearing, or from other clothing donated by the local tailor. Ad hoc encounters also occurred with the artist on her daily song routes, as well as during performative encounters at the exhibition installation site. This Project Collection contains photographic documentation, audio work, video element for installation (in collaboration with Robin Starbuck with audio contributions from Katharina Klement), artist residency workshop and lecture info, sketchbook pages and other process materials. <a href="http://lynnbook.archive.wfu.edu/collections/show/73">Return to Installation</a> Sound A resource primarily intended to be heard.

Book was an artist in residence for 2 weeks, developing the project through a set of processes that included: interviewing various people who lived locally, gathering songs from them (mostly folk songs in their native Slovenian language), and environmental sound that the artist recorded on her daily expeditions around the medieval core and along the Drava river. The resulting sound piece that Book edited, was played during the course of the month-long expedition. https://s3.amazonaws.com/lynnbook/original/1c50ce667e44a134e426b0eb088c5277.jpg 9089e4aa3d31cde6f81bb60be7ba815c Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Early Works - Performance Art, 1978-83 Description An account of the resource This collection of early performance art projects by Lynn Book, were expansive in their conceptual and material play and drew from the art historical moment of the late 70s, as well as from Book’s intrinsic physicality developed in her modern dance practice and study (including the boundary breaking postmodern experiments of ‘Judson Church’ dancers).  The term “Performance Art” had only been coined in the early 70s to describe artists engaged with the process of engaging with material forms; performing material manipulations with their bodies.  Book was in tune with these shifts in the landscape of art making having honed in on this new territory as a space for her, as a young woman, to freely explore her creative ideas that were already crossing disciplinary borders.  From site-specific performance works, such as the “Advance and Stack” series to staged multimedia performances to performance installation works like those in the Up Front exhibition (1980-81).  Book was also developing a nascent understanding of how women were mostly excluded from the larger art historical canon and created works that critiqued that paradigm, as in “Recent Paintings by Lynn Book”, a performance installation project at the short lived, but influential Randy Toy Gallery in Memphis. Because of the border crossing works, many of the works represented here, will also be found in the Early Works - Sculpture Collection as Book as creator and/or co-creator of the material constructions of the installations that would be performed in, and continue beyond the performance, its residue playing a central role in the experience of an installation site throughout an exhibition, such as “Build Up Break Down”, Up Front (1980-81). <ul style="font-size: 12px;"> <li><a href="https://lynnbook.archive.wfu.edu/collections/show/39">Advance and Stack, 1978-80</a></li> <li><a href="https://lynnbook.archive.wfu.edu/collections/show/40">An Evening of Performance Pieces, 1979</a></li> <li><a href="https://lynnbook.archive.wfu.edu/collections/show/41">Hair Piece, 1980</a></li> <li><a href="https://lynnbook.archive.wfu.edu/collections/show/42">3 on a couch, 1980</a></li> <li><a href="https://lynnbook.archive.wfu.edu/collections/show/68">ABDK, 1980</a></li> <li><a href="https://lynnbook.archive.wfu.edu/collections/show/70">Build Up Break Down, 1980</a></li> <li><a href="https://lynnbook.archive.wfu.edu/collections/show/71">Count Up Count Down, 1980</a></li> <li><a href="https://lynnbook.archive.wfu.edu/collections/show/69">That Which is Below, 1980</a></li> <li><a href="https://lynnbook.archive.wfu.edu/collections/show/44">Recent Paintings by Lynn Book, 1980</a></li> <li><a href="https://lynnbook.archive.wfu.edu/collections/show/45">Black and White and In Between, 1981</a></li> <li><a href="https://lynnbook.archive.wfu.edu/collections/show/46">Weekly Calendar, 1982</a></li> </ul> Moving Image A series of visual representations imparting an impression of motion when shown in succession.

Title A name given to the resource Early Works - Video Art, 1981-83 Description An account of the resource This small collection of early experimental video art works by Lynn Book marked a transition from professional, which is to say corporate, media started to move into the hands of artists, often by way of surveillance systems which relied on inexpensive, low grade equipment for the purpose. Book got her hands on a black and white video camera, a beta videotape portapack and a ¾” U-matic editing deck, all provided by Richard Reep, the adventurous photography instructor at the Memphis College of Art. Included here is “Appearance, some semblance”, a social studies oriented video predicated on a basic set of questions put to passers by in a public location. “Two Heads” was a formally constructed, black and white video art work directed by Book, who used a ‘character generator’ overlay of geometric shapes and lines that furthered her investigation of ideas of separation, intimacy and obstruction in relationships. The running time is Book was involved with a small cadre of media explorers in Memphis through the public television station, founded by Tav Falco called “Televista”. She had access to the editing studio there which she used to edit this piece and also, with what was called a ‘character generator’ overlay geometric shapes and lines that furthered her investigation of ideas of separation, intimacy and obstruction in relationships. There were other works that Book shot and edited that are no longer in existence, such as “Silence is Golden, Silence is Broken” and a documentary of “Ironing Board Sam”, a Black blues musician who’d found some fame by an appearance on “Real People”, the first syndicated ‘reality’ television show. In his current incarnation, he became an underwater keyboardist and singer in a special tank he would immerse himself in.

Title A name given to the resource Lynn Book Covers, 1990, club performance Description An account of the resource “Lynn Book Covers” was an evening length club performance composed of 3 separate sets at Club Lower Links, in Chicago at the time of the early 90s culture wars when gay rights was an imperative to combat the threat of the AIDS epidemic being ignored by Washington; when the artists’ prerogative was necessary in a time of attempted censorship by conservative political powers; and yet another American-led war in the Middle East was being prosecuted by the Bush (the elder) administration. The stripped down text-centered work in the first set was a biting, irreverent indictment of the current status of bodies under siege, with bits of personal material interwoven. The second set, was the first showing of “tongue”, a solo vocal text work that expanded from 18 minutes to 40 minutes. See that work in its own Project Collection. The 3rd set included a gender bending play with Book’s Bulgarian counterpart Kulov (replete with babushka's) singing Bulgarina folk songs, some of which were taught to Book by her collaborator. This Project Collection includes the complete project video documentation, performance cue cards with text, process cards with prompts for improvised portions, a later, more complete version of “tongue” (the original was handwritten on one connected loop-scroll of computer paper), a review and printed matter. Club Lower Links was the epicenter of experimentation, activism, adventurous music and anything else that didn’t fit neatly into more established gallery, museum or music spaces. The underground club, painted completely black, on Chicago’s northside near Wrigley Field, owned and operated by Leigh Jones, was most always packed with artists and culture warriors seeking a charge, and a refuge. Book was active on that scene, performing there regularly in her work and in others, as well as for benefits for non-profit arts organizations. This work marked a distinct shift for Book away from multimedia performance projects and established her as a vocal artist in her own right.

Title A name given to the resource Physical Vision, 1989-91, multimedia performance Description An account of the resource Lynn Book’s original multimedia performance project, Physical Vision, premiered at Randolph Street Gallery, in Chicago, December, 1989 and continued to be performed through 1990 at venues in Chicago and New York. For this solo project, Book was interrogating Woman’s subjectivity within and outside of patriarchal structures, in particular, via language and visual representation. Book’s provocative physicality in conjunction with disruptive writing and voice tactics challenged notions of the 19th C hysteric feminine that initiates the performance as a preset with the performer arranging flowers in a large vase as the audience enters the space. Sketching a disjointed trajectory Book transforms into a complexity of gender plays, ending with a typically masculinized rock and roller contemporary to the time of the performance in the late 1980s. The project marked the first time Book worked with a director - Jill Daly, and was a continuation of her collaboration with experimental filmmaker, Sharon Couzin that began with “Standing In”. Cousin shot and edited a short film, with Book (co-directing the film) and Daly performing that worked with selected text from Marguerite Duras’ “The Malady of Death”. Kent Devereaux composed sound for the project and Lou Mallozzi was the lighting designer. Book wrote and/or arranged found text (except for the Duras excerpt) and composed the vocal melodies. Items included in this collection include: video documentation from the Randolph Street Gallery and Organic Theater performances, as well as 2 studies; 60 color photo slides from the Organic Theater performance, performance text, a film for the performance, audio files played during the performance, press reviews, venue brochures, announcements. Collaborators/Credits: Lynn Book, artist, writer*, co-film director, co-sound designer, set and costume designer Jill Daly, director, co-performer in film Sharon Couzin, filmmaker, co-film director Kent Devereaux, composer, co-sound designer Lou Mallozzi, lighting designer *The performance text was written primarily by Book, but also included excerpts from Marguerite Duras’, “The Malady of Death”, a medieval description of odiferous atmospheres, edited by Piero Camporesi titled, “The Incorruptible Flesh: Bodily Mutation and Mortification in Religion and Folklore”, and a found text on the term corsage.

Title A name given to the resource Regarding Next, 2007-08 Description An account of the resource Lynn Book’s “RE:garding Next '' ( 2007-08) was a ‘collaborative culture project’ exploring utopian desire as a platform for radically imagining collective ‘nexts’. A host of collaborators, student participants and communities were involved through exhibitions, classes, workshops and performances in the U.S. and in Europe. The Southeastern Center for Contemporary Art (SECCA) in Winston-Salem, NC was the producing institution hosting the multilayered project with an evolving exhibition in the Balcony Gallery from January - April, followed by a large-scale multimedia performance in the McChesney Scott Dunn Auditorium there. Book, Klement and Carrasco performed a concert version at Roulette in New York City, and then Book and Klement created a duo version continuing the utopia work at a granular scale in Pittsburgh at SPACE Gallery and in 2008 at Amman Studios in Vienna, Austria. Also, in 2008, further iterations occurred through residency with Transart Institute that included a workshop and performance, and an exhibition in Linz, Austria. SECCA is where the foundational project took place and encapsulated all three of these areas, with subsequent performances, a workshop and a satellite exhibition occurring in modular form later. Included here is a documentary short about the SECCA project, video elements used in performances, photo documentation, project development notes and materials, performance structures, workshop documents and printed matter such as venue brochures, programs and press releases. More detailed descriptions can be found in each of the subcollections.
