Discussion question
In this week’s lecture and resources, we cover Performance Art. Performance art is one of the most surprising forms of art – it can be visceral, sexual, uncomfortable, politically engaging, & involve almost anything! This art form is still alive and vibrant today but has strong roots to the period of Conceptual Art.
For your Discussion Board post complete the following:
Performance artists consider their actions, the selection of the location/environment where the performance takes place, potential audience engagement & reaction, the meaning of the materials they use & their relationship to art history when they plan ‘happenings’.
Select one performance art piece from this week’s resources to write about.
Include an image of the work, with the artist’s name(s), year and any other relevant information .
In a short response, 250 words or less, describe what the performance piece is about. Reflect on the meaning of the artist’s choices in terms of: action, location, audience, materials, and art history relationship.
