Thoughts for June
Allan Kaprow organised a Happening on Segal's farm, near the sea, on a beach, at the end of the day. Men and women no one pays attention to: they are looking at the wind playing in the plants, on the surface of the sea: there is no better performance than the moment one is living in, nor a more beautiful dialogue than a conversation with friends. Isn't this, in fact, the abandonment of artificial or theatrical speech to realise what is real and what belongs to everyday life. Art becomes secondary. Finally.
