Manipulating the T-Bar

1966 • 10 min

Nauman shot two films in 1965, and despite their rudimentary execution they make a compelling diptych.

Film of an actor pretending to be myself making a tape of the sound effects for the film “Manipulating the T-Bar,” on the other hand, introduces what would become Nauman’s consistent artistic persona: the absent presence.
