Becoming a Citizen of the World: Deleuze Between Allan Kaprow and Adrian Piper
Becoming a Citizen of the World: Deleuze Between Allan Kaprow and Adrian Piper
This chapter examines the relevance of the thoughts of Gilles Deleuze to the works of Allan Kaprow and Adrian Piper. It argues that Kaprow had made a shift akin to Deleuze's move from expressionism to constructivism and addresses the politics of Kaprow's practice in relation to Deleuze's concept of counter-actualisation. It describes the alternative of Piper's practice as one that creates performance events capable of catalysing new social territories in and as life.
Keywords: Gilles Deleuze, Allan Kaprow, Adrian Piper, expressionism, constructivism, counter-actualisation, social territories
