This class is devoted to the exploration of performance art, a genre-crossing form of aesthetic expression.  We will identify and examine in detail contemporary performance practices.  We will also cover the historical antecedents of performance art, including significant events and controversies.  In addition to building our skills as performers and critical thinkers, we will gain a greater understanding of the impact these practices have on issues of identity, community and culture.
