Overflow : A reinvention of Allan Kaprow's fluids [multimedia] / [sponsored by the Getty Research Institute].

The Getty Research Institute (GRI) presented Overflow: A Reinvention of Allan Kaprow's Fluids in collaboration with the J. Paul Getty Museum, Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) in Los Angeles, and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art in conjunction with MOCA's Kaprow retrospective, the J. Paul Getty Museum's California Video exhibition, and the GRI's publication Allan Kaprow--Art as life. Fluids, one of renowned artist Allan Kaprow's "happenings," occurred in 1967 when teams of volunteers built rectangular structures of ice throughout the city of Los Angeles. Overflow, by the LA Art Girls, was a reinvention of Fluids that reinterpreted the original score. It was conceived as both a historical dedication and a contemporary investigation of some of the issues raised by Kaprow's original work.
