The Gangster Sister From Chicago Visits New York (A Family Piece)

1977, 7:50 min, Audio CD

Originally installed in a makeshift "house" painted red, white, and blue, this provocative audio piece features Acconci addressing imaginary characters — Mama, Daddy, Big Brother, Sister, and Jesus — in a singular take on the American family.

The Gangster Sister From Chicago Visits New York (A Family Piece) is one of a series of newly restored early conceptual audio works by Acconci. These works are now available from EAI on audio CD.
