Comments on: The World Famous Bushman! http://macaulay.cuny.edu/seminars/orenstein07/?p=97 Seminar 1 with Professor Orenstein | HN C100 | W 3:10-5:40 Tue, 06 Nov 2012 17:26:22 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2.2 By: Katie http://macaulay.cuny.edu/seminars/orenstein07/?p=97#comment-58 Katie Wed, 03 Oct 2007 13:51:46 +0000 http://macaulay.cuny.edu/seminars/orenstein07/?p=97#comment-58 At the beginning of your paper, I was glad that you disagreed with the definition that the impact of performance art isn't as long lasting as other arts. I'm on the fence about the Bushman. I can understand your ideas expressed in your paper and your opinion, but I just can't decide rather I see it as art. I suppose when you think about it any conscious act can be viewed as art, if your view of "art" is vast enough. So I guess I'd have to agree that the Bushman is art. I find it funny that his "victims" give him tips. If I got scared out of my skin by some random guy in garbage, I'd probably beat him up. Ha! Well, to each his/her own. Anyway, I really liked your take on the Bushman and art in general in your paper, and now I know there's a real Bushman wandering the streets of San Francisco.
