Breaking Protocol

Meer over het boek

Collaborative conversations on Indigenous performance art, convened by a leading practitioner For Breaking Protocol, Brooklyn-based transdiciplinary artist Maria Hupfield (born 1975) embarked on a research project on the protocols of Indigenous performance--tracing Indigenous knowledge systems, land-preservation practices and feminist scholarship to illuminate strategies for enacting refusal within decolonial frameworks. The book draws from Hupfield's "coffee breaks"--conversations held over Zoom during the pandemic, in which Hupfield invited international Indigenous performance artists to discuss their work (from dance to stand-up comedy), who in turn invited other artists to join the conversations.
