| Performa PublicationsFounded by art historian and curator RoseLee Goldberg, Performa is the leading organization dedicated to exploring the critical role of live performance in the history of twentieth-century art and to encouraging new directions in performance for the twenty-first century. Publications have been an important component of Performa’s activities from the outset, and are the result of the organization's commitment to and belief in the importance of writing, documenting, educating, and publishing about performance art. Following each biennial, Performa self-publishes a 350-page book that provides an overview of current performance practices in contemporary art using the structure of the biennial, as well as the history and geography of the participating artists and collaborating organizations, alternative spaces, and performance sites as a framework. Performa’s publication program also includes artist monographs and project specific publications.

Looking past the unbuilt utopian projects of the modernists or the postwar avant-garde, the authors of Bodybuilding delve into actually produced works of architecture fortified by performance: Arata Isozaki’s dancing robot-buildings at Osaka Expo 70, Charles Moore’s live-TV design sessions or Toyo Ito’s staged dioramas for department stores. Since the financial crisis of 2008, which sent construction rates plummeting, young architects have embraced performance more explicitly—and Bodybuilding grounds these new practices within a century of efforts to construct or critique architecture via performers’ movements and actions.
