About this show:

The EHF is delighted to welcome Jean Dupuy and Olga Adorno to New York

We are using this rare opportunity to screen 2 historical videos never shown publically before. the first 2 collective performance concerts organized by Jean Dupuy in 1974, and 1976, at The Kitchen and the Judson Church respectively.

Marking an extraordinary moment of collaboration among some of the leading artists of this generation, these events capture a unique and radically interdisciplinary moment in the history of 1970s New York. In these films we witness an intersection of means and talents, an organized series of actions and contributions wholly unlike the modes of collaborative practice that came before (e.g. in Fluxus) or after it (the broader field of Performance Art). Moreover, it emanates from an impressively disparate group of artists who would bring this field of process, temporality, and incidental events into their respective artistic practices, which extended from music to the ongoing activities of Fluxus to structural film, to dance, and beyond.
