MANIFESTO captures the vibrancy and immediacy of
manifesti, from Futurism in 1909 to 1960s Fluxus via Lettrism.
Vocalist Loré Lixenberg, laptop artist Federico Reuben and Aleks
Kolkowski on wax cylinders and horns bring the texts alive
musically, highlighting their ground-breaking and sometimes shocking
nature. A pop-up exhibition of rarely seen and exciting artefacts
including manifesto tracts, original scores, sound poems and
photographs as well as rare early records, by the
manifesto authors, features alongside the performance.

Like the lovers stretched out on the lawn of a lovely summer
afternoon, drunk on the odor of plants and flowers, I dream. My mind
wanders and returns to years ago. Among the trees and shrubs, I
dream of my work.

A facsimile of the first works by Lettrist artist Broutin, who joined
the French avant-garde movement in 1969. This pamphlet features asemic
writing by Broutin, a kind of wordless writing characteristic of
Lettrist art that has no meaning in terms of language.

New York, February 23, 2014
New Yorkers organized a protest march in the streets of SoHo. The
demonstrators came from every borough to express their astonishment,
indeed for the most engaged their disapproval, of the title and
content of the show Art by Delegation organized in Brussels.
John Smith, a member of the American branch of the Committee
for Creative Vigilance: I don't understand why the show is called
Art by Delegation. Since it is supertemporal art with the
participation of the viewers, based on an idea of Isidore Isou, the
creator of Letterism, the show could have simply been called
Concerning the Supertemporal.
Ann Pandergast is among the most determined demonstrators: We
call on all art lovers to write their creative slogans on the
supertemporal banner.
James Trawisky participated in the demonstration, but
expresses reservations about the radicalness of some of the entries:
After all, this show can be considered an advance that takes into
account the realities of public awareness and the state of the
market. If it is a further step toward the propagation and
recognition of this avant-garde movement, then why not?

Subject : The Book of the Living
Dear Edouard Berreur,
I am currently working on new editions of some of my previous works.
I am writing to you about The Book of the Living, a small
booklet that you were supposed to publish in 1970, for which I had
given you the original drawings for the deluxe edition.
Through the friendly intermediary of Frederic Acquaviva, last year I
was able to lay my hands on an ordinary copy of it; this is the
first time I had seen it. The facts are disappointing: the present
edition was only printed with a few copies, and was never
distributed. The deluxe editions were never done. After all this
time, I am not looking to start a confrontation with you – as I
should have done earlier – but rather to find a positive solution
which will finally permit me to give this work its place in my
bibliography.
I am inclined to help you arrive at an outcome that satisfies both
of us. Let me know what you would suggest on your part.
Your friend, Broutin
(As we go to press, I have not had any response to my
e-mail.)
