Wounded Furniture
Event Score #15 (1965)
by Alison Knowles
This piece uses an old piece of furniture in bad shape. Destroy it further, if you like. Bandage it up with gauze and adhesive. Spray red paint on the wounded joints. Effective lighting helps. This activity may be performed with one or more performers, and simultaneously with other events.
Premiered July 19th, 1965
Cafe au Go Go, NY
Re-performed by Tisch Photography and Imaging Multimedia Students in the Tisch Common Room, September 27, 2011.
The Wounded Chair is on view in the exhibition Fluxus and the Essential Questions of Life at the Grey Art Gallery.
