Angela Vettese's lesson explores artistic research on the body starting from the 1960s, a period in which the body became a tool for political resistance and protest.
The session investigates the language of performance through artists such as Joseph Beuys, Yoko Ono, Marina Abramović, as well as Vanessa Beecroft, Regina José Galindo, Tino Sehgal, and Anne Imhof, analyzing how the artist's body, time, and space become tools to communicate ideas, emotions, and social critiques. The lesson includes historical examples and reflections on the impact of this practice in contemporary art and visual culture.
