REPURPOSING
WE PRESENT A PRESENTATION

Jackson Pollock Bar
Joseph Beuys in NYC
9:00pm-10:00pm | James Gallery
PRELUDE.11 has commissioned Jackson Pollock Bar to re-perform Joseph Beuys’ first public dialogue in New York City, which took place at Cooper Union in 1974. The German artist’s commitment to environmentalism and interdisciplinary, which occasions hostility from the student audience, are timely to revisit given the intensity of present-day debates about activism and politics in visual art.
Artists Involved
Directed by Christian Matthiessen; Performed by Martin Horn,
Company
Jackson Pollock Bar is a performance group founded in 1993, which is concerned with the "installation of theory", i.e. performing the artist's discourse. Works primarily involve the recreation of a significant talk, interview, or panel discussion from art history. Based in Freiberg, Germany, their work has been seen at MoMA P.S. 1 in NYC, the Getty in Los Angeles, documenta X in Kassel, the Venice Biennial, and other venues internationally.
