Out of Actions: between performance and the object 1949-1979
Important book published on the occasion of the exhibition Out of Actions: between performance and the object 1949-1979, organised by Paul Schimmel, The Geffen Contemporary at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles. 8 Feb – 10 May, 1998.
Out of Actions: Between Performance and the Object, 1949–1979 was the first major museum exhibition to examine the complex relationship linking the creative process, action or performance, and works of art in the postwar period. Featuring nearly 150 artists and collaboratives from approximately 20 countries in Eastern and Western Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Japan, and North and South America—including figures associated with the New York School, Nouveaux Realistes, Fluxus, Viennese Actionists, Hi Red Centre, Arte Povera, the Gutai group, happenings, process art, and performance art—the exhibition centred on how the possibilities and implications of using time and process as elements of art were realised by a number of international movements during this influential 30-year period.
