Titles with or about Stuart Sherman

Seventh Spectacle

1976, 31 min, b&w, sound

Sherman may best be known for his solo Spectacle performances, which usually took the form of quick-paced interactions with everyday objects over a table top. He created and performed eighteen Spectacles in total, twelve of which he performed solo, and six with groups of collaborators. A prominent theme of the Spectacles was Sherman's playful use of scale, either in the amplification of small gestures and details, or the miniaturization of theatrical spectacle.

In this group Spectacle, thirty performers take turns drawing from a pile of props and creating absurd vignettes with their chosen objects.
