This page documents artistic performances that began in the 80s and continue to this day. Some were created using analog photography techniques typical of the time. Where two dates are present, it means that the first date after the title of the work (e.g. 1988-2002) determines its conception. The second date (e.g. 1988-2002) its physical realization.
