"Performing Contagious Bodies explores live/body art and installation practices through theories of ritual and magic. It maps out an ambitious and thought-provoking study of live art - together with its documentation and traces - and uses the concepts of contagion, magic and ritual to open up a range of hotly-debated questions about the temporal aspects of live art, their relation to 'event' and durationality. Featuring discussion of a wide range of contemporary international practice, this book explores the intersections of performance studies, art history, anthropology and contemporary visual art practices"-- Provided by publisher.
