About

Why this artist matters now

Lydia Alfonsi was an Italian performance artist whose practice emerged in the 1960s and 1970s, when performance art was establishing itself as a distinct medium in Europe. Working primarily with her own body as material, she created durational and gestural works that engaged with presence, endurance, and the relationship between performer and viewer.
