Abstract:
This essay takes as its central concern the historical transmission of Reza Abdoh’s performance works via their circulation in the artist’s retrospective exhibit at the KW Institute for Contemporary Art in 2019. I analyze two interlaced defining features in the KW exhibition—archival remixing and viscerality—that the curators used to honor Abdoh’s artistic legacy. Focusing on the exhibit as a medium of performance historiography in diaspora, this essay argues that the multimedia installation of Abdoh’s archival work in the exhibition format utilized performance archives to create a haptic and visceral site of historiography and memory.
摘要:这篇文章主要关注雷扎-阿卜杜（Reza Abdoh）的行为作品在2019年KW当代艺术学院（KW Institute for Contemporary Art）举办的艺术家回顾展中的流传情况。我分析了KW展览中两个相互交织的决定性特征--档案混音和视觉性--策展人利用这两个特征来纪念阿卜杜的艺术遗产。这篇文章将重点放在作为散居地表演史学媒介的展览上，认为在展览形式中安装阿卜杜档案作品的多媒体装置利用了表演档案，创造了一个历史学和记忆的触觉和直观场所。
