Bobby Baker is one of most widely acclaimed and popular performance
artists working today. Over the course of a thirty-five-year career
she has toured the globe with her wildly stimulating explorations
of 'Daily Life' and has been extensively written about and studied.

account of Baker's career as an artist - from her first sculptures
at Central St Martins in the early 1970s to her most recent work,
'How to Live' and 'Diary Drawings' - with critical commentary by
reviewers and academic practitioners. It includes: Bobby Baker's
own 'Chronicle' of her work as artist and performer illuminating
critical writing about Baker's shows transcripts of Baker's
performances and other original materials reproduced here for the
first time significant new essays by Michele Barrett and Griselda
Pollock a new interview with Bobby Baker by Adrian Heathfield.
Under the guiding editorial hand of distinguished cultural theorist
Michele Barrett, this volume is an essential text for students
interested in performance, gender, and visual culture, and a hugely
absorbing and accessible account of Baker's work.
