Join us for a performance and book launch for Susan Silton's publication project, Who's in a Name?, presented in partnership with LACE. This project began as an intervention into John Baldessari's public art project YOUR NAME IN LIGHTS, which gave viewers an opportunity in January 2011 to see their names illuminated in lights for fifteen seconds on a large screen installed on the facade of the Australian Museum in Sydney. In response to the public solicitation, Silton invited artists to each register the name of an artist who had committed suicide. These names she culled from a Wikipedia site devoted to the archiving of artists (and others) who had ended their lives.
