An overview of collaborative practice in durational visual performance, 10 Together provides a chronology of L+C work (2010-2020) in city centers and small towns from the rural USA to islands in Norway, with stops between in Finland, Poland, Germany and Czechia. With crisp images and descriptions, the performances are made accessible to a public beyond the viewers at each site. The publication also contains reflective and academic writings by leaders in the international field of performance.
Longva+Carpenter is artists Terese Longva (NO) and Laurel Jay Carpenter (US). Employing visual and gestural reiteration, the collaborators examine the struggle and strength of difference. Their cultures and bodies, together, provide significant grist in generating projects that trouble notions of time, matter, corporeality and identity. These heightened spaces for specific and directed actions cultivate an ongoing investigation of personal longings, feminist ideologies and political urgencies.
