Living Theatre artist Judith Malina s drawing of Parisian rooftops in 1968. After studying with Erwin Piscator, the most well-known practitioner of Epic Theatre besides Brecht, Judith Malina and her partner Julian Beck founded the Living Theatre in 1947. Taking inspiration from Artaud s Theatre of Cruelty, they sought to inspire political dissidence using theatre that engaged the audience through direct spectacle. They were at the leading edge of the American avant-garde for several decades, working regularly with such notable collaborators as Allen Ginsberg, John Cage, Claes Oldenburg, Maya Deren, Walter de Maria, Ray Johnson, Jonas Mekas, Kenneth Anger, John Ashbery, and William Carlos Williams among others. In the 1950s and early 60s, The Living Theatre staged plays by Jean Cocteau, Pablo Picasso, and T.S. Eliot, as well as Bertolt Brecht s In The Jungle of The Cities, and The Brig by former marine, Kenneth H. Brown. The authorities caused problems for the Living Theatre. The IRS evicted the company out of it s 14th Street space during the performances of The Brig. Actors in the infamous 1968 production of Paradise Now were arrested for indecent exposure on several occasions. Both Malina and Beck were briefly jailed for contempt of court following their IRS hearing. After their release, the theatre took a self-imposed exile to Europe for a few years touring Mysteries, Smaller Pieces, Frankenstein, Paradise Now, and Jean Genet s Maids. These rare and unseen drawings from Malina are from her period of exile in Paris; doodles of quiet rooftops, almost in contradiction with the seismic changes in the global political situation and her own life. Holograph in black marker. 4 x 6 in. framed to 9 x 11 in. Very good, with (.
