Les Levine's Greatest Hits

1974

30min

This video performance represents Les Levine singing and dancing to the popular tunes of his adolescence. At the start of each song, the artist places a certain quantity of colored pigments onto the surface of a sheet of paper that serves as a dance floor. The camera, focused on the movement of his feet, observes the modifications of the paint “as it happens”, coinciding these with each musical segment derived from his personal hit parade, in autobiographical fragments.
