Hayley Newman
Hayley Newman works performatively, producing live events, film, video and photography. Sally O’Reilly looks at how she investigates modes of documentation and the historical placement of the genre.
As Newman points out, the history of performance art is impossible to comprehend in its entirety; documentation is not exhaustive, there are few books on the subject and many art magazines have difficulty accommodating the comparatively fleeting nature of an event in contrast to a six-week exhibition.
Similarly, due to this time-sensitivity, Newman has never found gallery representation particularly relevant. The financial needs of her work suit commissioned projects rather than the ongoing influx of funds through selling.
