Depicts 'Relation in Movement' performed at the 10th Paris Biennale in September 1977. Ulay drove their Citroen bus round and round in circles in front of the Musée d’art moderne de la ville de Paris, while Marina rode with him and shouted the number of laps through a megaphone. The car died after 2226 rounds/16 hours, leaving a black trace. Beautiful documents of important performance pieces, both prints in good condition. (total 2)
