Legendary Fluxus document commemorating the life of the movement’s founder and chairman George Maciunas.
Inverting the numbers 47 (the age of Maciunas at his death) Joseph Beuys and Nam June Paik perform a piano duet for 74 minutes at Dusseldorf’s Kunstakademie. The mood isn’t quite funereal, but certainly introspective and fully wandering. Stark, purist flutters on the ivory keys, swallowing time and switching up reality for just over an hour. Iconic sleeve with excellent photographs of Beuys / Paik’s performance. Rare! (NM/NM).
