Scarce original exhibition/catalog publication documenting performances by Marina Abramović and Ulay, issued by the Experimental Art Foundation, Adelaide.


Titled Two Performances and DETOUR, this booklet captures early collaborative works by Abramović & Ulay at a pivotal moment in their practice. Includes photographic documentation and text from performances such as The Brink (Art Gallery of New South Wales, 1979), along with minimalist black-and-white imagery consistent with their conceptual approach.


A rare and important piece of performance art history from the late 1970s—materials from this period, especially smaller institutional publications, are increasingly difficult to find.
