A feast of astonishments

Charlotte Moorman and the avant-garde, 1960s-1980s

Charlotte Moorman was a bold, barrier-breaking musician and performance artist and a tireless champion of experimental art, whose avant-garde festivals in New York City brought new art forms to a broad public. To date, recognition of Moorman has been limited mostly to her collaborations with other artists. A feast of astonishments looks deeper to portray Moorman as a leading international figure in her own right.
