In the vibrant downtown Manhattan art scene of the late 1970s and early 1980s, Tehching Hsieh made an exceptional series of artworks: five separate one-year-long performances that were unprecedented in their use of physical difficulty over extreme durations and in their absolute conception of art and life as simultaneous processes. The rigor and dedication of his art inspires passion, while the elusive and epic nature of his performances generates speculation and mythology. ‘Out of Now is the first extensive critical account of these remarkable works.
