Overview

Lesley Dill: Performance as Art was organized and exhibited by the McNay Art Museum in San Antonio, Texas.

 Lesley Dill explores the relationship between the written word and human figure in nearly every medium and technique imaginable. The exhibition focused on her emotionally evocative work in performance by bringing together a number of costumes, ephemera, photographs, and video projections from more than two decades. Literature and poetry are constant sources of inspiration for New York-based artist Lesley Dill, who has degrees in English and philosophy.
