«As Boring As Possible»

Paik and Moorman staged a number of joint performances in the course of a European tour in 1965-1966. No objections were voiced in Europe to the best-known of these pieces, Paik’s 'Opera sextronique' in which Moorman discarded an item of clothing after each movement. In New York, however, it led to the arrest and subsequent trial of both artists in 1967.
