Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar

In the gallery there was a low wooden ramp merging with the floor. The ramp extended across the width of the room, beginning two feet up the side of one wall and slanting down to the middle of the floor. Acconci lay hidden underneath the ramp, masturbating. The artist's spoken fantasies about the visitors walking above him were heard through loudspeakers in the gallery. The performance lasted until 29 January.
(15 January 1972)



There are 3359 births, 3911 deaths, 1122 murders, 494 disasters and 2072 other events about 5713 people in 6416 places until today.

Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar is an ongoing project since 1985 by DDV.
