/From a Measured Volume to Indefinite Expansion. Los Angeles, Seth Siegelaub, 1969. Poster, offset printed b/w, 90 x 60 cm. Print run of 600. Announcement for Barry's notorious 1969 performance which consisted of releasing five volumes of odourless, colourless, noble gasses into the atmosphere in various locations surrounding Los Angeles.
