The space between us considers the interrelation of video and performance.

Performance art has seen a resurgence in recent years, stemming from a desire to question art’s ability to affect audiences and test established exhibition and viewing habits. These seven artists - Lauren Brincat, Alicia Frankovich, Laresa Kosloff, Angelica Mesiti, Kate Mitchell, James Newitt and Christian Thompson - are connected through their interest in the artist as a performing body, the artist as creator/director of performances, and the viewer’s role in relation to the works and as active participant.
Designed and Produced by Branches Publishing in association with the Art Gallery of New South Wales to accompany the exhibition of the same name.
