Selbstbemalung (1965)

Name: Selbstbemalung
Released: 1965-01-01
Duration: 4 min
Cast: Günter Brus

A performance in which Gunter Brus writhed on a floor covered in a viscous white paint. Though Brus did not harm himself, violence and damage are everywhere suggested the black painted line dividing his body seems to split him open, sludge-like paint covers his eyes and seeps into his mouth, and a corkscrew ominously points toward his face.
