It's a great subject, with reference to the Black Death, Edward Muybridge motion studies and Henri Matisse's Dance painting. Skip Arnold was born in Binghamton, New York and currently lives and works in Marseille, France. Skip Arnold has maintained a transgressive practice of body performance art, photography, film and installation art. In the style of extreme body centered work that includes such practitioners as Marina Abramovic, Chris Burden, Paul McCarthy and Bob Flanagan and Fluxus Art. His work is grounded in body politics, Self as Subject, Performance Art, Film/Video, Contemporary Art, Provocative body art, confronting the body as a politicized entity. In his performance art, Arnold seeks out extremes and intensities, testing the limits of physical endurance. Although Arnold originally started using video simply to document, he ultimately ended up exploring the medium itself. Education: M.F.A. University of California, Los Angeles, B.F.A.
