Condition: Sehr gut. XVI, 308 S. Gebraucht, aber gut erhalten. - Text engl. - Henry M. Sayre liefert mit dem vorliegenden Buch den Versuch die sehr unterschiedlich wirkenden Ansätze der Amerikanischen Avantgarde seit 1970 über ihr Verständnis von Kunst als etwas Performativem zu verbinden. -- The lack of common style in American art since 1970 has generally been explained as a function of the avant-garde's confused diversity, its willful eclecticism-in short, its "pluralism." Henry M. Sayre instead defines this art in terms of its shared, distinctly postmodern concerns, showing for the first time how the entire range of contemporary art-including dance, photography, oral poetry, performance art, and earth sculpture-is associated in a collective avantgarde project. What artists like Cindy Sherman, Andy Warhol, Laurie Anderson, David Antin, and Robert Smithson have in common, Sayre convincingly argues, is a view of art as primarily performative.-- Inhalt: The Object of Performance -- THE RHETORIC OF THE POSE -- Photography and the Portrait as Performance -- A NEW PERSON(A) -- Feminism and the Art of the Seventies -- TRACING DANCE -- Collaboration and the New Gesamtkunstwerk -- THREE PERFORMANCES -- Laurie Anderson, Eleanor Antin, and Carolee Schneemann -- "SO MUCH TO TELL" -- Narrative and the Poetics of the Vernacular -- OPEN SPACE -- Landscape and the Postmodern Sublime -- CRITICAL PERFORMANCE.
