"Video in Performance and Video as Performance" by Charles Atlas
Since the early 1970s, Charles Atlas has been an innovator in combining dance and performance with film and video. His documentaries, TV productions, multi-channel video installations, and live electronic performances all reflect a unique approach to creating and capturing movement with the camera. Over his long career, Atlas has collaborated with leading figures in dance as well as music and art, including Merce Cunningham, Marina Abramovic ´, Antony and the Johnsons, Leigh Bowery, Michael Clark, DANCENOISE, Douglas Dunn, Fennesz, John Kelly, Yvonne Rainer, and, most recently, Mika Tajima and New Humans. This talk will focus on his recent work (2003-present) with live video in installation and on stage.
