As part of the The Getty’s Pacific Standard Time initiative, The Geffen Contemporary at MOCA in Los Angeles has put up the most comprehensive survey exhibition to date to examine contemporary art in California of the years 1974-1981. On display are for example Chris Burden’s The Reason for the Neutron Bomb (1979); and Suzanne Lacy’s Three Weeks in May (1977). During the Member’s Opening of the show, Mark Pauline activated his more than 30 year old De-Manufacturing machine.
