Notable discussions of Civil's works

"Gabrielle Civil, associate professor of performance, is a black female poet, and conceptual and performance artist. She is creating an installation titled Kinds of Performing Objects I’ve Been that will include performance documentation, objects such as keepsakes and paintings on glass and tin. She will be in the space occasionally throughout the exhibition, interacting with gallery patrons, telling stories and performing gift exchanges."^[11]

"Gabrielle Civil, Associate Professor of Performance at Antioch College, came to WYSO today to talk about the second part of the Call and Response event, or dynamic of black women and performance. In July seven black women artists, each with a different relationship to the words black, women, and performance, came to Antioch to develop a call to the community; a prompt to make art in a different way. The call that they came up with is to conduct experiments in joy."^[12]
