(Fluxus performance).
FESTIVAL OF MISFITS: Robert Filliou, Addi Kopcke, Gustav Metzger, Robin Page, Benjamin Patterson, Daniel Spoerri, Per Olof Ultveldt, Ben Vautier, Emmet Williams. Leaflet-announcement/invitation.
London: Gallery One (Oct. 23), 1962.
14 x 18cm. Single sheet printed with descriptive text. The rare leaflet invitation for this historic Fluxus event, which featured the performances: '53 Kilo Poem' by Filliou (aka. 'one-eyed good-for nothing Huguenot'), 'Alphabet Symphony' by Williams (aka. 'the Pole with the elephant memory'), 'Paper Piece' & 'The Triumph of Egg' by Patterson (aka. 'captured alive Negro') and 'So Yourself Chorale' by Spoerri (aka. 'Rumanian Adventurer'). The text also notes the similarly site specific nicknames of Kopcke, Metzger, Page, Olof Ultvedt & Vautier. Slight browning to edges, else a very good+ example of this ephemeral keepsake of one rollicking good time indeed.
