Private residence

Item consists of a video recording by Wendy Geller entitled "Private Residence". The video has been described as being: "Geller’s accomplishment as a master videographer is exemplififed in this video work in 1974. It was not released for distribution until 2002. We can look back at the low tech of the 1970s and be startled to see that “Private Residence” withstands the tech revolution and stands as a stark, simple, and timeless art work."

The second work was performed at Artist's Space, New York in January 1976. In this performance, Graham stands in front of a mirror, facing the audience, and tells the audience his movements and their meanings.
