The exhibition, organized by Athena Spear, consisted only of the catalogue, which includes photocopied proposals, instructions, diagrams, and charts from the fifty invited artists. Unbound pages were also "mounted on wall of a well frequented corridor of the art building", as Spear writes in the catalogue ; some of the works, she adds, "were executed by students of the Oberlin College Art Department".{/cap}{/small} — {small}(In ''Please Pay Attention Please'' - Bruce Nauman's Words, Writings and Interviews, edited by Janet Kraynak, MIT Press, 2003, p. 50 - ^[[pdf download\|http://www.lavgg.com.ar/img/texts/pdf/please_pay_attention_please_bruce_naumans_words_writings_and_interviews.pdf]^]){/small}---- {br}{br}{br}{br} \| \|t {br}{br}{br}{br}---- ---- ---- [../files/articles/nauman/1969_microphone2.jpg]{br}{br}{br}{br}---- {small}{cap}Expanding upon the earlier ''Amplified Tree Piece'' (1969), this instruction for a sculptural installation, according to the catalogue raisonné entry, was acquired and built by the Grinstein family in Los Angeles ; however, the tree in which it was installed died soon after.{/cap}{/small} — {small}(In ''Please Pay Attention Please'' - Bruce Nauman's Words, Writings and Interviews, edited by Janet Kraynak, MIT Press, 2003, p. 61 - ^[[pdf download\|http://www.lavgg.com.ar/img/texts/pdf/please_pay_attention_please_bruce_naumans_words_writings_and_interviews.pdf]^]){/small}----{br}{br}{small}{cap}Microphone / Tree Piece calls for sinking a microphone deep inside a tree sending the audio signal back to the gallery.{br}{br}— ''Joan Simon'' — "Did you think this could be monitored, or was it about conceiving a mental space ?"{br}— ''Bruce Nauman'' — "Well, it worked.

Image and sound call up associations with the psychic and existential borderline areas around which Nauman's art often revolves, with feelings of isolation and claustrophobia, experiences of loss of communication and of orientation, and traumas such as that of being buried alive.{/cap}{/small}{br}{br}[../files/articles/nauman/1972_audiovideo5b.jpg] [../files/articles/nauman/1972_audiovideo4b.jpg] [../files/articles/nauman/1972_audiovideo3b.jpg]{br}{small}(Pictures : Museum Moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig Wien){br}---- For his ''Audio-Video Underground Chamber'', Bruce Nauman constructed a concrete chamber beneath the Museum Moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig in Vienna. For the duration of the exhibition, and as a premier showing, the sparse signals from the Austrian museum will be transmitted via camera and microphone into the K21 Ständehaus. It is impossible to enter this visually abstract space or to locate it precisely. Like Nauman’s models of tunnels and drawings, the chamber is a stimulus to reflect upon imaginary and real spaces.{/small}---- \|t \|t \|t \|t \|t \|t \|t \|t \| {br}{br}{br}{br}
