Abstract: 8 Acts of Love is an interactive exhibition inspired by the Out of Site Chicago artist collective's archive (https://www.outofsitechicago.org/, accessed 22 October 2023). Over the past thirteen years, this international collective, comprising women, trans and non-binary artists, has come together through collaborative, multimodal public performance across diverse global locations. United by the transformative power of performance art and practice research, the work in Out of Site Chicago's archive has been co-curated as 8 Acts of Love by Dr Alice Bell, Associate Professor and Fine Art Programme Leader, and Carron Little, Out of Site Chicago organizer and artist in residence at the University of Lincoln, United Kingdom. This project brings together the sites of Chicago, United States, and Lincoln, United Kingdom, in an integrated exploration of how diverse artistic and social encounters can engage different places, spaces, artists, students and educators, opening new avenues for cross-cultural understanding and exchange.
