In this talk, I will address the relationship between activities of maintenance and performance art, and in particular the feminist ramifications of this relationship. The aim is to identify what I call the “power of the residual”, the latter understood both
as material leftovers (especially food waste) and as political minorities. I will first analyze Daniel Spoerri’s art practice and his ‘trap-paintings’, and in the second part of the paper I explore the feminist aspects of performance with a particular focus
on maintenance art and its ecological and sociological practices (M.L. Ukeles, Anna Halprin).<br>
<br>
If one thinks the power of residual, or the empowerment of what is left-out and left-behind, one brings about a dialectical change in perspective on the structure of society. This change in perspective reveals that “left-out” agents are no longer to be considered
the weaker part of society but in fact the stronger since they actually support, work for, care for and maintain the very equilibrium of society<br>
<br>
<strong>Barbara Formis</strong> (PhD in Philosophy, University Paris 1-Sorbonne) is Senior Lecturer in Aesthetics and Philosophy of Art in the Department of Fine Arts of the University Paris 1, Panthéon-Sorbonne. She works in the interdisciplinary field between
philosophy and performance. Mainly influenced by pragmatism, her research explores the possibilities of a philosophy of the body with a particular focus on performance and its relationship to social phenomena and life-practices.<br>
<br>
She is the director of the research team ESPAS (Aesthetics of Performance and Performing Arts) within the Institute ACTE of the French National Center for Scientific Research. She is the co-founder and co-director with Dr. Mélanie Perrier (University lecturer
and choreographer) of the Laboratoire du Geste, a research collective working in the area of performance art.<br>
