Performance als Lebensform

Marion Leuthner

doi:10.14361/9783839437421

Summary

Utilizing the term 'way of life', Marion Leuthner reflects on performance art not as 'live art', but as an extension of art onto the duration of the artist's life. Three existential questions and case studies of three performance artists aid her presentation of this perspective: daily life and religion/Linda Montano; the self and the other/Genesis P-Orridge; and human and machine/Stelarc. Bringing together theories from various areas such as art, religion, philosophy, psychology, cybernetics, and media theory, this study connects these performance artists to modern thought traditions, in relation to which the artists manage to bring together theory and practice in their lives.
