Live Art in LA: Performance Art in Southern California , 1970-1983
documents and critically examines one of the most fecund periods in
the history of live art. The book forms part of the Getty
Institute's Pacific Standard Time initiative - a series of
exhibitions, performance re-enactments and research projects
focused on the greater Los Angeles area. This extraordinary volume,
beautifully edited by one of the leading scholars in the field,
makes vivid the compelling drama of performance history on the west
coast. Live Art in LA: moves lucidly between discussions of
legendary figures such as Judy Chicago and Chris Burden, and the
crucial work of less-celebrated solo artists and collectives;
examines the influence of key institutions, particularly Los
Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions and the California Institute of
the Arts - and the Feminist Art Programme established at the
latter; features original and incisive essays by Peggy Phelan and
Amelia Jones, and eloquent contributions by Michael Ned Holte,
Suzanne Lacy and Jennifer Flores Sternad. Combining cutting-edge
research with over 100 challenging and provocative photographs and
video stills, Live Art in LA represents a major re-evaluation of a
crucial moment in performance history. And, as performance studies
becomes ever more relevant to the history of art, promises to
become a vital and enduring resource for students, academics and
artists alike.
