August 27th, 2008 at 6:05 pm

What is the relationship between gesture and time, mediality and performativity, and appropriation and activism? How has the role of performance art in society changed over the last three decades? In this panel, art historians discuss their research on performance from the 1960s to the 1980s and the place of performance art in the contemporary cultural landscape.

This event was sponsored by the Vera List Center for Art and Politics at The New School and taped for Thirteen Forum on April 24, 2008.
