Coco Fusco, born and based in New York is a interdisciplinary 
artist and writer and is one of the most significant and influential 
performance and video-artists (also an articulate and outspoken 
theoretician, as well as an active curator).  She deals with issues 
such as
 globalisation, gender-specific conflicts, cultural colonisation 
and intercultural theory and practice. Her work is an ongoing 
reflection on the conditions of (women's) bodies in globalising and 
technologically imbued environments.

She has performed, lectured, exhibited and curated around the world 
since 1988. She is the author of English is Broken Here (The New 
Press,1995), The Bodies That Were Not Ours and Other Writings 
(Routledge/inIVA, 2001) and the editor of Corpus Delecti: Performance 
Art of the Americas (Routledge, 1999) and Only Skin Deep: Changing 
Visions of the American Self (Abrams, 2003).

Fusco?s recent art projects combine electronic media and performance in 
a variety of formats, from staged multi-media performances 
incorporating large scale projections and closed circuit television to 
live performances streamed to the internet that invite audiences to 
chart the course of action through chat
 interaction.  Her works have 
been included in such events as The Whitney Biennial, Sydney Biennale, 
The Johannesburg Biennial, The Kwangju Biennale, The Shanghai Biennale 
and VideoBrasil.

ELASTIC RESIDENCE is a non-profit gallery space for projects and 
durational performance.  It is an artist-run space established in 2004, 
aimed at giving artists dealing with challenging contemporary material, 
direct access to exhibiting opportunities.
