This exhibition is conceived as the first stage of a research project led by the Villa Arson since September 2007 on the history of performance art on the French Riviera from 1951 to the present day. This project will culminate in the summer of 2012 with the creation of an online database on the subject, a publication, and an Act 2 exhibition bringing together films, photos, objects and various documents related to this history.
