Twenty Years of Performa Reverberates Through WSA

On Nov. 1, the performance art biennial founded by Roselee Goldberg celebrated its 20th anniversary on the Manhattan waterfront at the WSA building. Guests were treated to performances throughout the night, as well as a preview of “Performa XX: 20 Looks.” Honorees Tschabalala Self and Paul Pfeiffer were recognized at the benefit dinner, after which guests headed upstairs to an after-party co-hosted with Document Journal. Notables in attendance included Shirin Neshat, Joan Jonas, Tyler Mitchell, Chloe Wise, JiaJia Fei, Kim Shui, S’aint Panic, and more.
