WikiProject Visual Arts
Performing Wikipedia is a sub-project of WikiProject Visual arts and is intended to encourage the creation of new and improve existing articles on live art and performance art. It originated as a result of the event Performing Wikipedia at the Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA), London, 21-23 May 2010.[1]
The event was described as:
- Performing Wikipedia invites participants to collaborate on updating the on-line encyclopaedia with materials about performance and live art. A marathon attempt to write the legacy of performance into electronic public space, Performing Wikipedia is at once a mediated collaborative performance, and an intervention which propels the history and representation of live art into this significant online encyclopaedia/resource.
This project was started by Tyrenius, 22 May 2010.
