50. La dénégation des types, tant individuels que collectifs, est une conséquence de l’impératif antiraciste qu’il nous est devenu nécessaire d’assumer. Pauvre nécessité, pourtant, qui nous oblige à effacer ces airs de famille, ces ressemblances vagues mais insistantes, ces mélanges touchants ou amusants des effets de la génétique, de la mode, des divisions sociales, des âges, et au milieu desquels émerge avec plus de relief l’incomparable de chacun(e).
From 58 INDICES SUR LE CORPS et EXTENSION DE L’ÂME. Éditions Nota bene, Québec, 2004.

50. The denial of types, individual as well as collective, is a result of the antiracist imperative we've had to adopt. A poor necessity, however, since it obliges us to efface family likenesses, those vague but insistent similarities, touching or amusing blends of the effects of genetics, fashion, social divisions, ages, from the midst of which there emerges, and with greater distinctness, what is incomparable in each person.
From Fifty-eight Indices on the Body (Corpus), Jean-Luc Nancy. New York, Fordham University Press, 2008.

Necessità povera, tuttavia, che ci obbliga a cancellare quelle arie di famiglia, quelle somiglianze vaghe ma insistenti, quei miscugli commoventi o divertenti degli effetti della genetica, della moda, delle divisioni sociali, delle età in cui emerge con più rilievo il carattere ineguagliabile di ciascuno(a).

OPEN CALL FOR PERFORMANCE ARTISTS:
Deadline 31st December 2019

Amae/De Pinto’s
‘63 VIDEOS ON THE BODY’
In collaboration with philosopher Jean-Luc Nancy

INTRODUCTION:
2013 was the year of the launch of ‘58 (+1) indices on the body’, an ambitious multi-media project designed to extend Jean-Luc Nancy’s text and intended to offer clues that explore the notion of body and soul through action and sound.

PREVIOUS CHAPTERS:
From 2013 the collective Amae and artist Pier Giorgio De Pinto performed 5 actions derived from the 58+1 paragraphs initially written by Nancy and were invited to meet the philosopher and perform two actions with him in Freiburg and Strasbourg.

Later, Nancy wrote 4 more paragraphs exclusively for the project and recorded his own voice reading the whole of the 63 statements.

To celebrate the event, one more performance took place at the Whitechapel Art Gallery in London.

Following this 63 audio tracks were selected from submissions by more than 40 composers to create a soundscape for each recording of Nancy’s voice.

THE PRESENT DAY:
We now believe that the time has come to put everything into moving images. Therefore we are now opening a call to all performance artists willing to give their own unique contribution to Nancy’s statements.

We are looking for brand new pieces, specifically made for ‘63 VIDEOS ON THE BODY’.
