Performance Art
Performance art encompasses a wide variety of artistic pursuits, from modern dance to artists presenting something about themselves as art. It’s another form of art that divides the art community: some say it’s art, others say it isn’t. Readers consider both sides of the coin through an introduction to the topic, informational sidebars, and full-color photographs. A colorful, fun layout invites readers into the vibrant world of performance art while the main content engages their brains with critical thinking questions which ultimately ask—is it art?
