About this Item
Description:
First Edition. Artist book. Documentation of the wedding of George Maciunas and the poet Billie Hutching, less than three months before the former's death from cancer. As the capstone performance to his life-long interest in cross-dressing, Maciunas wore a bridal gown, along with Hutching, at the SoHo ceremony, with the couple also performing a clothing swap/striptease-groom transforming into bride, and vice versa-during the reception. The ceremony was officiated by Fluxus artist Geoffrey Hendricks, who had earlier been involved in the first Flux Divorce in 1971. Textured duotang portfolio, with hand-stamped titles to front and rear panels. Inserted into pockets: xerographic copies of the Flux Certificate of Marriage, the Register of Witnesses, and service programme, an 8 x 10 silver gelatin print combining two photographs of the wedding service (with stamp of Hollis Melton to verso), and a 3 pp. transcription of the readings and vows by Hendricks. Some toning to portfolio panels, else near fine. With only 5 OCLC records located. Seller Inventory # 29013
