| | Performance art - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Performance art is a term usually reserved to refer to a kind of usually avant-garde or conceptual art which grew out of the visual arts. | | | Performance art, as the term is usually understood, began to be identified in the 1960s with the work of artists such as Allan Kaprow, who coined the term happenings, Vito Acconci, Hermann Nitsch and Joseph Beuys. | | | Performance art is art where the actions of an individual or a group at a particular place and in a particular time, constitute the work. |

| | Performance artists go live for opening of Carnegie International |
| | The piece she'll perform live today is described as "the culmination of a two-year project in which the artist has made a serious attempt to fulfill her lifelong wish to become an opera singer," an artistic form that seems made for her. | | | Performance art remains a significant component of contemporary art expression and is no stranger to Pittsburgh. | | | Incorporating a performance artist into a major and long-running exhibition is another matter. |

| | Performance Artists Talking in the Eighties |
| | Linda M. Montano is a performance artist and the founder of The Art/Life Institute in Kingston, New York. | | | Performance artist Linda Montano, curious about the influence childhood experience has on adult work, invited other performance artists to consider how early events associated with sex, food, money/fame, or death/ritual resurfaced in their later work. | | | The interviews highlight complex issues in performance art, including the role of identity in performer-audience relationships and art as an exploration of everyday conventions rather than a demonstration of virtuosity. |

| | Body art, performance, "Aktionism", Happenings: these are all names for the many late 20th century art forms that have used the artist's own body as the subject and object of the artwork itself. | | | In the post-war period, however, artists began using their bodies as the subject and the actual material of the artwork itself, through such art forms as Body art, Happenings and performance. | | | In these international art forms the artists body is used to represent both the state of contemporary art and the human condition in general. |

| | Guardian Unlimited The Guardian An exhibition of yourself |
| | In her book, Performance, Goldberg charts how artists turned to performance as a weapon against convention, as they broke free of the dominant media of painting and sculpture, and the constraints of working within the traditional gallery system. | | | Over the decades, artists like Chris Burden (who lay in the same position under a sheet of glass for two weeks) or Orlan (who has undergone a series of cosmetic surgeries to turn her face into a composite of features from famous works of art) have pushed their flesh almost beyond endurance. | | | Back at Dilston Grove - the converted London church where McCarthy and 20 performance artists are contributing to Span2, a month-long international festival - curators Roddy Hunter and Andre Stitt admit that their chosen medium is mired in cliche: all wanton flesh and blood-letting and orifices. |

| | High Performance had no point of view except reportage of news "and the rebirth of wonder." Burnham was democratic, operating on an open submission policy, publishing any artist who could provide that documentation in black and white, dates, and a description of the performance printed in a single- or double-page spread. | | | This occurred at the inception of performance art as a movement, featuring 15 to 80 artists per issue, and providing a breadth and depth of materials previously unseen. | | | Publisher, founder and editor Linda Frye Burnham began the magazine by asking for material directly from the artists on the premise that for too long art was mediated by a curator or an art critic. |
