Description: “Performances Diagonale: Art, Actions, Interventions, Rituels, Situations, Comportements, Installations,” by Egidio Alvaro, published in Paris in 1981, 48 pages, softcover in stapled wraps, 8.25” by 6”. Text in French. Obscure publication on Fluxus-inspired performance art and happenings associated with the Diagonale art space and gallery in Paris, published on the occasion of a performance art festival in Strasbourg and under the auspices of the Fundacion Calouste Gulbenkian in Lisbon. Five essays explore difference themes, such as Body Art and Actionism, with commentary on the artists profiled in 22 black and white photos, including Danny Devos (of Club Moral), Miguel Yeco, Hiroshi Naruse, Ollivier Coupille (still active electronic sound artist), Mami Aoyama, Marie Kawazu, Novae Akrilik, Franck Na, Lydia Schouten, Mineo Yamaguchi, Servie Janssen, Karl Iro, Manoel Barbosa, Patrice Larochereuil, Giner, Barbara Heinisch, Laurence Hardy, Arnaud Labelle-Rojoux, and Ria Pacquee. Photos of performances are presumably by Gerald Dens of Paris, whose stamp appears on the last page. Very scarce – OCLC has no record of this publication. In excellent condition save for some faint spotting to cover. Buyer to pay for item plus shipping.
