Response to a ReappRopRiation Request Carolee Schneemann n a letter to the artist, dated January 23, 2013, Danish choreographer Mette Ingvart sen wrote: âOn May 29th, 2014, it will have been exactly fifty years since you pre miered your performance Meat Joy in Paris at the Festival of Free Expression . . . . I would like in collaboration with you and the performers you were working with in 1964, to make a reconstruction of Meat Joy . . . to understand better what precisely was going on in this period, and also what the exact questions were within the performing arts scene. Today reconstructions and the interest in the past have become a trend in the European dance scene. And even though I have been very resistant and critical towards this trend, thinking that art is not there to conserve and repeat history but rather to reinvent and develop itself, I think that these specific questions deserve a reactualiza tion . . . . What I would like to do, through interviewing you and the other participants about the performance, is to figure out how we together can reÂactualize the performance that was made fifty years ago.
