This publication allows an initial overview of the performance art scenes, artists, performance locations and festivals in multilingual Switzerland. First-hand and second-hand accounts enable insights into and cross-references between different performance networks. Proceeding from collective research outcomes and mappings at various locations, the authors describe “performance landscapes” from Santa Maria Val Müstair to Basel, and from Eastern Switzerland to Lake Geneva. The authors’ contributions start with the very first days of performance art in the mid-1960s and come all the way through to the present day.
