"In this clip in all about performance art. We're going to talk about the fact that you need to do some research before you create your piece. You need a little bit of history. So research performance artist. How fun is that? I mean Yoko Ono for example, classic, famous performance artist. Did you know that she made John Lennon fall in love with her because of her piece? This is what happen. He goes into the gallery and her,you stand on this chair and he has this magnifying, there's this magnifying glass hanging there, and then there's this little tiny, tiny word and he took the magnifying glass, and it's magnified through the glass and it says the word "yes". John Lennon fell instantly in love with the piece and instantly in love with Yoko Ono forever and ever. Well now you heard that Yoko Ono is out performing in gay dance clubs, all out force, moaning and moaning and doing primal, she is still working it. So little tiny words in magnifying glasses, moaning, primarily on the foreign dance clubs, these are all Performance Arts. So check out Yoko Ono. What about the Groover Look Girls. Have you heard about the Girly Girls? There's the Girly Girls and there's Girly Girls on tour, an option to the Girly Girls. Two performance arts groups. They are anonymous. You don't know their names. Go check them out on the web. They wear masks and they go around in political performance art, that's another option. Laurie Anderson, amazing music performance artist. Karen Finley. Do your research. There's amazing, tradition and history here for you to learn and become inspired by."
