Lively yet intriguing, The Body in Performance is a varied
collection of essays about this much-discussed area. Posing the
question "Why this current preoccupation with the performed body?"
the collection of specially commissioned essays from both academics
and practitioners - in some cases one and the same person -
considers such cutting edge topics as the abject body and
performance, censorship and live art, the presentation of violence
on stage, carnal art, and the vexed issue of mimesis in the
theatre. Drawing variously on the work of Franko B., Orlan, Annie
Sprinkle, Karen Finley, and Forced Entertainment, it concludes with
a creative piece about a 'Famous New York Performance Artist.'
Contributors include Rebecca Schneider whose book The Explicit Body
in Performance is a key text in this area, and Joan Lipkin,
director and writer.
