What is performance art?

Performance art has its roots in ritual, but resides on today's cutting edge of cultural values. Each performance is a staged situation. There is no bill of sale. It is not a protest against the art market, yet it is free from the glut of material production. Performances are interactive experiences for both the performer and the audience. Through its ephemeral nature, performance art is a way of producing something and nothing at the same time.
