Abstract
Pierre Huyghe’s work Streamside Day moves the boundaries between representing and producing rituals. In 2003, the artist scripted a holiday for a freshly built suburb in New York State, which he simultaneously turned into a documentary film and quasi-liturgical participatory installation. Artists are increasingly reclaiming the notion of ritual. Simultaneously and beyond the art world, innumerable new rituals are formalizing and circulating through videos online. The forms of ritual and of moving image are merging. To make sense of this phenomenon through the lens of Huyghe’s limit case requires examining ritual production through representation, from Gentile da Fabriano’s Miracolo dei pellegrini to YouTube’s prom videos and gender-reveal ceremonies.
