Note with tape: Barbara Campbell's Flesh Glories is a performance of portrait making. Timed to coincide with Parliamentary broadcasts on the ABC, she will make two fresh portraits each day over eight days, until an exhibition is amassed. Barbara Campbell has been making performance for more than fifteen years. Her work is often concerned with mythologised figures - always women - often infamous. The dramatic devices used in the performances have been borrowed from Catherine the Great, Julia Margaret Cameron, Roland Barthes and photographers who attempted to capture the likeness of Trukanini in the nineteenth century. Barbara Campbell is performing Monday-Thursday 22-25 September and 29 September-2 October, in the Verandah gallery, National Portrait Gallery, 2-3pmher work is on display 20 September-12 October.0:52:21sound cassettespoken wordaudio/mpegaudio/waven-AU2024-03-01This audio recording is provided for research purposes only and must not be reproduced without the prior permission of the Archives Program, Australian National University.
