LESSON 1: “PERFORMANCE ART ORIGINS AND EVOLUTIONS”

Performance art is a form of expression that was born as an alternative

artistic manifestation. The discipline emerged in 1916 parallel to Dadaism, under the
umbrella of conceptual art. The movement was led by Tristan Tzara, one of the
pioneers of Dada. Dadaism was born with the intention of destroying any system or
established norm in the art world. It is an anti-art movement, anti-literary, and anti-
poetry, that questioned the existence of art, literature and poetry itself. Western
cultural theorists have set the origins of performance art in the beginnings of the 20th
century, along with constructivism, futurism, and Dadaism. Dada was an important
inspiration because of their poetry, which drifted apart from convents and futurist
artists, especially members of Russian futurism, could also be identified as part of the
starting process of performance art.
Performance art is a term usually referred to a conceptual art which
conveys a content-based, meaning in a more dramatic-related sense, rather than
being a simple performance for its own sake and for entertainment purposes. It also
refers to a performance presented to an audience, but which does not seek to present
a conventional theatrical play or a formal linear narrative or which alternately does not
seek to depict a set of fictitious characters in formal scripted interactions. It includes
action or spoken word as a communication between the artist and audience, or even
ignores the expectations of an audience, rather than following a script written
beforehand.
Performance art can be close to performing arts. Some may use a script
or create a counterfeit dramatic setting, but still constitute performance art in that it
does not seek to follow the usual dramatic norm of creating such fictitious setting with
a linear script which follows conventional real-world dynamics; rather, it would

7
intentionally seek to satirize or to transcend the usual real-world dynamics which are
used in conventional theatrical plays. Performance artists often challenge the
audience to think in new and unconventional ways, break conventions of traditional
arts, and break down conventional ideas about “what is art?”
Some performance art evolutions include:

1.Viennese Actionism(1960’s) -comprehends a brief and

controversial art movement of the 20th
century, which is remembered for the
violence, grotesque and visual of their
art works.

2.New York, Futurism and Avant-Garde -appeared in 1909 and first started as
Performance a literary movement,even though most
of the participants were painters.
In the early 1960’s,New York City
harbored many movements,events
films and videos, and staged events
and performance actions that included
live rock music,explosive lights and
films.

visual arts movement related to music,
literature, and dance.Its most active
moment was in the 1960s and 1970s.
They proclaimed themselves against
the traditional artistic object as a
commodity and claimed to be a
sociological art movement.Fluxus was
informally organized in 1962 by
George Maciunas(1931-1978).

5.Process Art -is an artistic movement where the

end product of art and craft, the
object d’art (work of art/found object),
is not the principal focus,the process
of its making is one of the most
relevant aspects:the
gathering,sorting,collating,patterning,
and moreover, the initiation of actions
and proceedings. Process artists saw
art as a pure human expression. This
kind of art defends the idea that the

art
process of creating a work of art can
be an art piece itself.
6.Happening -the term “Happening”has been used
to describe many performance and
events, organized by Allan Kaprow
and others during the 1950’s and
1960’s, including a number of
theatrical productions that were
traditionally scripted and invited only
limited audiences interaction.A
happening allows the artist to
experiment with the movement of the
body, recorded sounds , written and
talked texts, and even smells.

7.Video Performance(1970’s) -In 1970’s artists have derived to
works related to performance art
evolved and consolidated themselves
as artists with performance art as
their main discipline, deriving into
installations created through
performance,video-performance or
collective actions or in the context of
a socio-historical and political context.

8.Endurance Art -endurance performance art deepens

the themes of trance, pain,
solitude,deprivation of freedom,
isolation, or exhaustion. Some of the
works were based on the passing of
long periods of time and known as
long-durational performances. One of
the pioneering artists was Chris
Burden in California since the 1970s.

9.Performance Poetry(1980’s) - Performance poetry appeared to
distinguish text-based vocal
performances from performance art,
especially the work of scenic and
musical performance artists, such as

music at that time. It is poetry that is
specifically composed for or during a
performance before an audience.

10.Feminist Performance Art -Since 1973,the feminist Studio
Workshop in Woman’s Building of Los
Angeles had an impact in the wave of
feminist acts, but until 1980 they did
not completely fuse. The conjuction
between feminism and performance
art progressed through the last
decade.Still until 1980, did artists self-
define themselves as feminists, in
which women influenced by the 1968
student movement as well as the
feminist movement stood out. They
used this movement in their activism
guerilla tactics to denounce
Source:https://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feminist-art discrimination against women in art
through political and performance art.
11.Performance with Political Context --In Western World, in the 1990’s
performance art joined the
mainstream culture. Diverse
performance artworks,
live,photographed or through
documentation started to become part
of galleries and museums that began
to understand performance art as an
art discipline. Performance art in
China and its history had been
growing since the 1970s due to the
U7Source:https://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Performance-art
interest between art process, and
tradition in Chinese culture and gained
recognition from the 1990’s on.
12.New-Media Performance (2000”s) -In the late 1990s and 2000s, a
number of artists incorporated
technologies as the World Wide Web,
digital video, Webcams, and
streaming media, into performance art
works. Artists such as Coco Fusco,
