"Phelan's explorations are grounded in . . . trenchant readings of specific artworks and events."
-Alisa Solomon "The Women's Review of Books


Product Description

5.0 out of 5 stars Dramatically different point of view through peformance art., 29 Jan 2001
I favoured Peggy Phelan's book_The Unmarked: The Politics of Performance_ to a great extend because it seems to me to steer a delicate course around the question of the liveliness of performance, and to create a sense that the look is to be released from its points of fixation. Her book gives an opportunity to its reader to face the possibility of performance art as a unique medium of representation.
