According to Rashaad Newsom, his exhibit called Five which is to be shown during the Whitney Biennial 2010 deals with this growing phenomenon:

“Five is a multimedia performance that redefines how performance art is chronicled beyond the traditional mediums of video and photography. At the same time, Five serves as a platform to help voguing transcend its marginalization and be seen as a legitimate art form. Using custom-made interactive sound and video manipulation technologies, set to live vocals and an improvisational score Newsome creates a line drawing from the five dance elements of voguing.”
