Focus on the Artists: Janine Antoni


Janine Antoni, like Yoko Ono, used performance art using her entire body including hair, brain, arms, and legs. She is a contemporary artist who, through her performance, made people think, analyze, and ask questions.

I think its' really great that she puts herself into her art. One piece I read she did, she slept while a machine tracked her sleep. Then while she was awake, she sewed a blanket with  the guide from the EEG machine. She did this for eight days! Crazy, but really cool.
