Esse vídeo é tão hoje que ajuda demais a entender o século XIX como um desses picos de revolución técnica dos quais Amazon Google Microsoft Facebook Tesla não são donos.
Baroness Elsa von Freytag-Loringhoven
Well before Duchamp
“New York was a good place for her. With the city as her stage, she became one of the 20th century’s first performance artists and a proto-Dada star. She demolished boundaries, between genders, between art and fashion, art and politics, public and private. She preached sensation, surprise. On the street, she wore a birdcage over her head and a tin-can bra. Indoors, she preferred loosefitting wraps that could be whipped off, leaving her nude. Taking lovers of various erotic persuasions, she was a pioneer of queer. She wrote language-crunching, censorship-challenging verse in a steady stream and, well before Marcel Duchamp, invented the readymade as art.”
