Title: The world as a stage
Description: "The World as a Stage presents a key group of international contemporary artists who explore in their work the rich historical relationship between visual art and theatre. Covering a variety of media, including installation, sculpture, performance, participatory works and events, the book examines the framing of human presence in the experience of art. The World as a Stage also looks at recent attempts to eliminate the art object entirely by turning the institutional space into a changeable and constantly staged arena in which the audience is as central as player or performer."--BOOK JACKET.
