Arman - untitled (1962)

Arman

Arman

Title of the single: -untitled-
Publisher: Galerie Lawrence, Paris
Date: 1962
Medium: flexi disc 17 cm in catalogue of exhibition

 

The flexi disc contains an announcement presented by Arman himself for his exhibition at the Galerie Lawrence in Paris. In an improvised, escalating ecstasy, he repeats his name or the name of the exhibition, but also other details such as the name of the gallery, the location and some other information. Occasionally, he discusses this with another person. He accompanies himself acoustically by playing the tabla and with a wild clatter of objects that he seems to throw around. In this way, he gives an acoustic expression to his artistic approach to destruction.

The flexi disc was a supplement to the exhibition catalogue; the exhibition at the Galerie Lawrence in Paris took place from the 29th of May to the 23rd of June 1962.
