Beuys and Paik’s 24 Hours Closing Event of Galerie Parnass in Wupperthal.

 

On June 5, 1965, the happening 24 Stunden [24 Hours] was held as the closing event of Galerie Parnass in Wupperthal. (fig. II-5-01) Founded by an architect Rolf Jähring in 1949, Galerie Parnass was known as a pioneer in the international avant-garde art scene, and it was also the gallery where Paik premiered his electronic TV, and Beuys destroyed Paik’s prepared piano.

 

For this closing event, each major Action artist (Joseph Beuys, Bazon Brock, Charlotte Moorman, Nam June Paik, Eckart Rahn, Tomas Schmit, Volf Vostell) had a separate room in his transformed villa, and gave performances. It was a kind of buffet concert in which the audience would appreciate the performances by visiting one room and then others.386.

 

It attracted 30 to 40387 curious young spectators, including Bernhard Blume, Konrad Fisher-Lueg, Sigmar Polke, Gerhard Richter and Reiner Ruthenbeck. At this event, both Paik and Beuys made quite complex actions, so this chapter first analyzes Paik’s Robot Opera, and then Beuys’ action und in uns…unter uns…landunter.
