Work (1969) Work proposes the continuous repainting of a hallway by professional painters over a period of three weeks, with the colors chosen spontaneously by the painters. The process is open to viewing by an audience and demonstration by the painters. Video documentation of the process is transmitted live at a variety of types of theaters.
