Title: [Program]: June 11: Happenings at the Reuben Publication: [New York: Reuben Gallery, 1960] Description: Softcover. Single mimeographed typescript sheet. Quarto. Near fine with light wear along the foredge with a few tiny tears. A program for an early Happening performance held at the Reuben Gallery in New York by Allan Kaprow, who coined the phrase to describe the emerging performance art that incorporated various forms of artistic expression such as text, dialogue, sounds, colors, music, and audience participation. The pieces at this show featured: "Gossoon, a chamber event movement," arranged by George Brecht with performances by James Waring, John Baker, and Jerry King; "E.G." by Robert Whitman, starring Jim Dine, Rosalyn Drexler, Pat Oldenburg, and Lucas Samaras; "Intermission Piece" by Kaprow; "Electronic Music" by Richard Maxfield (who co-curated the Fluxus concerts at Yoko Ono's loft with LaMonte Young); and "Vaudeville Collage" written and performed by Dine. An important piece of ephemera from the then-emerging New York performance art scene of the early 1960s. *OCLC* locates no copies of this 1960 performance but one from 1959.
