Om Live Show, Moderna Museet
Jan Håfström
Moderna Museet, 1976
Jan Håfström writes about the Live Show project and its aftermath.
Live Show was an experiment that changed the participants as much as it changed the visitors. Working openly, without predetermined outcome, before an audience — that is a state of total exposure unlike anything else in artistic practice.
Sivert Lindblom, Björn Lövin and Ulrik Samuelson created a kind of artistic laboratory at Moderna Museet. The process was visible, the tools were visible, the failures were visible. It was liberating and terrifying at the same time.
