Presented by Perimeter Books as part of Melbourne Art Book Fair

‘Each time The Design Plot is performed… It is durational or cumulative, as it hosts a collective conversation that continually questions: What is the work? Where is the work? What happens to the work after occupying this architecture of time and space?’ – Zoe Theodore, The Design Plot 

Shelley Lasica’s debut artist book The Design Plot acts as both documentation of Lasica’s ever-evolving performance practice, and as a wider vehicle for exploring relationships between bodies and space, imagination and memory. Perimeter is pleased to be hosting the launch of The Design Plot (Perimeter Editions 061), comprising an artist talk between Lasica and Dan Rule, co-director of Perimeter. 

Speakers 

Shelley Lasica has pushed the confines of dance, choreography and performance for more than thirty years. Her practice is defined by an enduring interest in the context and situations of presenting choreography.  

Dan Rule is the Co-Director of Perimeter Books.
