Title: Performance Truths: Most of what I just told you was a lie Rights:
Medium: marker on paper Comments: Senga Nengudi notes: I did a lecture in Chicago. I always try to include a performance with my lectures. It was a simple concept–but one that had such a stunning affect that I’ve never done it again. Towards the end of my tlak about my background and artwork I handed the sheets in this folder around and had them ciriculated among the audience. It seemed to really off balance them.
Dimensions:  27.9 x 21.6 cm .
