Walking in an Exaggerated Manner Around the Perimeter of a Square vs ’Holy Holy’ by Wye Oak

According to art critic Paul Garcia, this film “represents a microcosm of the fundamental themes rooted in Nauman’s colorful aesthetic: circularity, repetition, minimalism, body awareness, and post-structural linguistic theory.“ One of my favourite Nauman filmed performances but ... in a spirit of irreverent homage ... let’s see what happens when we jam it up against Wye Oak’s ’Holy Holy’. Saucy beans! That’s hot, hairy and squirmy. Like Duchamp’s bearded Mona Lisa. For more convoluted writing on the original performance please see:
