This unique book draws attention to activities considered art performances, though involving sporting gestures. The book offers a better understanding of the combination of 'art and sport' and the characteristics of their interpreters to comprehend, treat, and prevent any injuries related to artistic expression through the movement of the human body.

The 13 chapters cohere around the most important and frequent sports-artistic performances, ranging from dance-related disciplines through equestrian sports to skydiving. For each discipline, the authors provide the reader with introductory and epidemiological elements, as well as practical guidance in orthopedics, physiotherapy, radiology, and sports science.

This work appeals to a wide readership, from athletes, through coaches, to physiotherapists and sports doctors who wish to better understand injuries related to artistic expression through body movement and optimize their treatment.
