Staging Action: Performance in Photography Since 1960 May 9, 2011

Drawn from the Museum's collection, the works included in 'Staging Action' feature performances, oftentimes executed in the absence of a public audience. At the center of these pictures is a performer (the artist, or his or her proxy) posing or enacting actions conceived in front of the photographic lens.
