hi marc, that's a challenging list of things to define ;) in my masters i quoted roselee goldberg's book "Performance art : from Futurism to the present" (2001) which positions "performance art" as live art practices emerging from the field of visual arts. she states that "[b]y its very nature, performance defies precise or easy definition" (2001, p. 9) and admits that performance art has become "a catch-all for live presentations of all kinds" (p. 226). the term "live art" is used a lot in the UK & generally refers to live performance work that has its roots in theatre, but there are plenty of artists & collaborations who have backgrounds in both visual arts & theatre, & often the terms are really interchangeable.
