Reviews

I would...encourage people to take the time to read it. It will give them and insight into the world of feminist performance art and a knowledge of contemporary radical ideas in the deconstruction of gender. <br>- Lesbian Sex Scandals <br>... gives in-depth analyses and explorations of the works of explicit body artists..and..provides valuable historical back-round on the movements and artists that inspired thier work.<br>...this is a valuable addition to the library of anyone interested in feminism and performance art.. <br>-D.C. Culbertson, Baltimore Alternative <br>... undoubtedly an important contribution to performance studies... <br>- Lesbian Review of Books <br>
