Linda Mary Montano is best known for her radical, pioneering performance art. Early in her career, she gravitated toward endurance works that demanded extreme devotion, physical dedication, and resolve. In the now-famous collaborative performance Art/Life One Year Performance , Montano was tied to Taiwanese-American artist Tehching Hsieh for an entire year (1983–1984) with an eight-foot rope that was secured around each artist’s waist. The gesture is as heady as it is punk, and it beautifully relays how far she will go for art.
