Dora García on Ida Applebroog

In this podcast series, we ask an artist represented in the David and Indrė Roberts Collection, and who was also part of one of the Evening of Performances, to select a work by another artist represented in the collection as the starting point for the discussion.

We invited Dora García, an artist who often draws on interactivity and performance in her work. At our 2008 Evening of Performances, García performed The Game of Questions, a performance that blurred boundaries between spectator and performer.

In this edition, she chose Ida Applebroog’s A Performance, (1977-1981) which sparks a discussion about reading and performance, marginality and collaboration.
