Resetting the Coordinates is the first anthology/reader of performance art of Aotearoa New Zealand. It invites the reader into its lively, 50-year critical survey of Aotearoa’s globally unique performance art scene.
It includes 18 chapters by researchers that explore the post-object and performance art of the late 1960s to the rich vein of Māori and Pacific performance art from the early 1990s.
It discusses the work of Jim Allen, Phil Dadson, Peter Roche and Linda Buis, performance art initiatives in post-earthquake Christchurch and queer performance art, among many other topics.
