Performing Acts on Photography
The multidisciplinary performing arts are continuously instigated by
new technologies. If the body were originally the relationship with the
public and the unexpected major components of performative action, with
time became constant the embodiment in every work of art - including
photography. However, the characteristic ambiguity of photography, this
is not expressed in a single form of performance art. In this context,
we can identify four types of events: the documental, the creation of a
photographic subject as a result of a performative action, the
performance in portrait photography and the application of the concept
of everyday performative photography as an object.
