• W1518686491 abstract "expressionism: like American art of late 1940s, they are a moral act, a human stand of great urgency, whose professional status qua art is less a criterion than their certainty as an ultimate existential commitment (Happenings 60). He distinguished happening, however, from tragic vision of older painters by saying that happenings [live] out purest melodrama, which he saw as most prevalent theatrical form in American culture (61). While no one refers to Brecht in this context, it is clear that tragedy of expressionist variety was seen as a culturally conservative and co-optable form. Yet Kaprow's avowal of an ultimately existential commitment can only appear to avoid tragic by taking on mantle of absurd.

Quoting Baxandall's idea that these fragments of a new aesthetics and ethics constitute the outlines of everyday life for post-compulsive, post-manipulated (139), he recalls Rousseau's qualms about manipulative capacity of theater and its antidote in public festival. Combining play element of celebration which became for sixties counterculture a standard response to gravity of Vietnam with outlines for post-compulsive, post-manipulated man meant nothing less than desire to stimulate people into producing their own lives and meanings in opposition to consumption of ready-made meanings and enjoyments provided by culture industry, sensitizing them to life that is This content downloaded from 207.46.13.151 on Wed, 28 Sep 2016 04:54:02 UTC All use subject to http://about.jstor.org/terms" @default.
