8vo. 46pp. Printed wraps. Black & White plates. Text in English. Heavy foxing as shown. Scarce. Documents two early performance pieces (1979) by Marina Abramovic and Ulay and a project called â Detourâ . In Performance 21, â The Brink,â Ulay walks back and forth along the top of a wall while Marina walks back and forth on the shadow line of the wall as it falls on the ground. Black and white photographs document the 4 hour and 20 minute performance. In Performance 22, Ulay moves in response to commands â goâ ¦stopâ ¦backâ ¦â announced in an upredictable order by a strong voice and Marina sits still at the center of the space counting pieces of swandown out loud. Black and white photographs document the 1 hour and 30 minte performance. The project â Detourâ is represented by eleven photographs of the Australian landscape with dramatizing descriptions on the facing pages that turn trees, boulders, grasses and plains into active participants in a narrative.
