In so doing, it presents both theoretical frameworks and functional paradigms for thinking about - and enacting - the conservation of performance. Further, while the conservation of performance is undertheorized, performance is nevertheless increasingly entering the art market and the museum, meaning that there is an urgent need for discourse on how to care for these works long-term.
