Artist Emily Roysdon has been commissioned by Tate Modern to develop this special event as a response to the work of Barbara Hammer.
Emily Roysdon (born 1977) is a New York- and Stockholm-based artist and writer. Her working method is interdisciplinary: recent projects take the form of performance, photographic installations, printmaking, text, video, curating and collaborating. Roysdon recently developed the concept ‘ecstatic resistance’ to address the impossible and imaginary in politics. The concept debuted with simultaneous shows at X Initiative in New York and Grand Arts in Kansas City. Roysdon is editor and co-founder of the queer feminist journal and artist collective, LTTR, and she is a contributing member with the band MEN.
Roysdon’s work has been shown at the 2010 Whitney Biennial, Greater NY at MoMA/PS1, Manifesta 8, Bucharest Biennial 4, Participant, Inc. (NY); Museo Tamayo (Mexico City); New Museum (NY); and Power Plant (Toronto). Recent solo shows include new commissions from Art in General (NY), Konsthall C (Stockholm) and a Matrix commission from the Berkeley Art Museum. Her videos have been screened widely, most recently at the Berlinale; and the Images Festival (Toronto). Her writings have been published in numerous books and magazines, including the Journal of Aesthetics and Protest, Zehar, C Magazine, and Women & Performance: a Journal of Feminist Theory.
