Description
A Split Second of Paradise: Live Art, Installation and Performance by Nicky Childs and Jeni Walwyn. This collection of essays explores the world of live art, installation and performance. Written by two leading figures in the field, it provides a unique insight into the creative process and the ways in which artists use their work to challenge and engage audiences. Through a series of case studies and analyses, Childs and Walwyn examine some of the most innovative and thought-provoking works of contemporary art, from performance pieces that blur the boundaries between artist and audience, to installations that transform public spaces into dynamic environments.
