Being in Time: Performance Art by Marty St James

Written from the perspective of personal memories, definitions and historical contexts this book shines a light on what Performance art is really all about. By way of actual examples of artist's works, ideas, beginnings and insights. It shines a light upon the specific and the wider aspects of what is involved and ways in which the art form has wider implications of living life through the creative experience. It touches on some of the more bizarre and crazy aspects of Performance art via hilarious stories related to the authors' actual experiences and observations of other artists.
