30 x 21cm, black and white silver gelatine photograph from original negative taken at the press conference for Billy Kluver's 9 Evenings initiative where he attempted to include scientists and engineers in the arts to inform artists of new available technologies. John Cage is speaking and one can identify Billy Kluver, Öyvind Fahlström, Lucinda Childs, David Tudor, Yvonne Rainer, Robert Rauschenberg at the top table amongst others.

This image was originally taken by Fred McDarrah and his estate retains copyright on the image so this is sold for personal use and not for reproduction. This is in very good condition and a crisp modern print (post 1990s we suspect) from original negative. If this was a vintage print we would charge much more.

30 x 21cm, 98pp + adverts plus card covers. A single number of this long running art journal here the important special issue on the theme of performance art. This has articles by Caroline Tisdall on Beuys' Coyote aktion in New York and Genesis P-Orridge and Peter Christopherson ("Sleasy")'s important essay Annihilating Reality as well as Mark Segal on Yvonne Rainer and Katia Tsiakma on Hermann Nitsch and Douglas Crimp on Joan Jonas as well as an interview with Klaus Rinke. There are also surveys of performance art in Germany and Holland. B/w images throughout.

This is a keenly sought number from the journal but is in below average condition - long tears on the spine and the pages are a little loose but all are present and corners a bit bumped - but this would be double in price if in vg condition. Priced thus.

21 x 10.5cm, 4pp announcement card for a series of films to be shown in the museum.

30 x21cm, 1pp mimeograph black on green paper with a text by the dancer that has been translated into German. The text explains how she uses text and slide material in her dance performances. The green paper is fading after nearly 50 years, there are two hole punches for past storage and a corner paper lack which does not affect text. Scarce.
