Performance Research: On Refuge by Ric Allsopp

Performance Research: On Refuge by Ric Allsopp

A 'refuge' provides a place of safety, a place which constitutes the necessary conditions for making work. But what are the conditions of making work for the displaced, exiled or the migrant artist when the 'place' and conditions for work have (perhaps) been erased? On Refuge looks at how such altered conditions affect the work of performance and considers how performance constructs its own production and survival. The contributors address issues of territory and asylum, home and exile, locality and migration - as they affect both artists themselves and the forms evident in contemporary performance.

Claire Macdonald is the author of seventeen best-selling food books and has featured at cookery demonstrations all over the world, in addition to owning and running the world-famous Kinloch Lodge on the Island of Skye for three decades.
