Reception
In the 2017 New York Times Magazine profile of DelGaudio, journalist Jonah Weiner wrote: Page Template:Blockquote/styles.css has no content.
DelGaudio devises performances that combine sleight-of-hand with more theoretical preoccupations drawn from performance art, conceptual art and what's known as relational aesthetics: a tributary of the first two in which spectators become indispensable, unpredictable participants in creating an artwork's meaning.[1]
