To now more about Body art paintaing performance

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia :

Examples of body art

Vito Acconci once documented, through photos and text, his daily exercise routine of stepping on and off a chair for as long as possible over several months. Acconci also performed a 'Following Piece', in which he followed randomly chosen New Yorkers.

Chris Burden actually had an assistant shoot him in the arm in his piece ‘Shoot’ (1971), which was observed by a live audience. This was documented in an eight-second video and is a notorious example of video art as well as performance art. In ‘Through the Night Softly' (1973), Burden crawled naked through broken glass, which he saw as stars in the sky, and turned the video footage into a ten-second commercial that was aired on television. In ‘Locker’, he spent five days jammed into a 2' x 2' x 3' locker at UCLA; in ‘Sculpture in Three Parts’ (1974), he sat on an upright chair on a sculpture pedestal for 48 hours, until he fell off due to exhaustion; in ‘White Light/White Heat’ (1975), he spent 22 days alone and invisible to the public on a high platform in a gallery, neither eating, speaking, seeing or being seen. Most of these performances are known only through photographs or short video clips.

The Vienna Action Group was formed in 1965 by Herman Nitsch, Otto Muhl, Gunter Brus and Rudolf Schwartzkogler. They performed several body art actions, usually involving social taboos (such as genital mutilation).

Marina Abramovic performed ‘Rhythm O’ in 1974. In the piece, the audience was given instructions to use on Abramovic's body an array of 72 provided instruments of pain and pleasure, including knives, feathers, and a loaded pistol. Audience members cut her, pressed thorns into her belly, and also held the gun up to her head. The performance ended as scheduled after 6 hours.

The movement gradually evolved to the works more directed in the personal mythologies, as at Jana Sterbak, Youri Messen-Jaschin, Rebecca Horn or Javier Perez.

Jake Lloyd Jones a Sydney based artist conceived a body art ride which has become an annual event, participants are painted to form a living rainbow that rides to the Pacific Ocean and immerses itself in the waves, Sydney Body Art Ride

Youri Messen-Jaschin dances with the paintbrushes on the bodies of the dancers and dancers and transforms them in the subjects of night clubs.

The big speciality on the stages of museums, galleries and club is to transform a woman of the head in feet, the public can see evolving in front his creation. After the performance. The public in the Museum, Theater can be transformed from Youri the bodyart painter.

He is very known in the nights in the "Amnesia", "MAD" in Lausanne, "Club Garage" St.Moritz, "E-Werk" Berlin, "Village" New York, "Escola do Samba do Salvador" Carnaval de Rio de Janeiro 1988, Moa Club Geneva. Company : Philip Morris, 24Heures, Société de Banque Suisse, Feldschlossen Bier etc...., where the public offer their body for a total transformation at the rate of the music of the DJ's.

With the suitcases of biologic make-ups, Youri showed his pictorial talents on bodies in London to Amsterdam, from Götenburg to Caracas, New York to Buenos-Aires and Berlin and by way to "Century Fox Film".

Of numerous women offered their bodies to the Bodyart-Painter to be transformed. Youri never paints the same work on a body, he has already reproduced two thousand original paintings on the alive skins. An original painting is ephemeral of one night.

More than 2000 women painted, over the world..

He reproduces not only the paintings on the body in clubs, he is also invited by European museums, galleries, international company, Montreux Jazz Festival and Art Events to present the live art.

Di ben altra formazione e generazione è lo svizzero Youri Messen-Jaschin nato nel 1941, artista optical nella metà degli anni Sessanta, oggi è tra i più rinomati esponenti della body art painting, che come un dj e un vj, si esibisce dal vivo nei club e nei locali più trendy del mondo, dove mentre gli altoparlanti sparano musica dance e house, lui dipinge corpi di giovani modelle con colori elettrici, fosforescenti e psichedelici, ma rigorosamente biologici. Insomma un grande vecchio dell’arte d’avanguardia di ieri, che ancora continua a sperimentare nuove forme espressive questa volta “sulla nostra pelle”
