The image shows a conceptual sketch and explanatory text for an art performance event titled "Tug of War Painting." The sketch at the top of the image features two teams of three individuals each, engaged in a tug-of-war contest over a canvas stretched over a low platform. The canvas on the platform is divided into three colored sections, with yellow in the center, red on the left, and blue on the right.

Below the sketch, the detailed text outlines the concept and rules of the event:

1. Event Description: Two teams of artists will compete in a tug-of-war contest during a circus event scheduled for November 1975.
2. Pre-Contest Preparations: Each team member must sign the canvas on the side facing their team. Different colors of paint will be spread in front of the canvas for each team.
3. Objective: The team that first pulls their lead man (marked as A' or B') over the middle (marked as C') of the platform will win the contest.
4. Creation of Artwork: The bare feet of the contestants will inevitably trample paint onto the canvas, thereby creating a unique composition that is justified as a painting.
5. Organization: The circus organizers will handle all necessary preparations, including the selection of contestants, a referee, and equipment. The event will be introduced to the audience by the referee, who will also signal the start of the contest and determine the winner.
6. Ownership and Display: The recipient of this drawing will receive the painted canvas from the event. If displayed, the winning team's names should be at the bottom upright, while the losing team's names should be at the top upside down.

The text is signed and dated "Douglas Huebler, 1975," indicating the conceptual artist behind this performance artwork.

The image presented is a conceptual artwork, which appears to be an explanatory text accompanied by a simple illustrative diagram for a performance art piece titled "TUG OF WAR PAINTING." The artwork was created in 1975, as indicated by the date in the top right-hand corner.

The diagram shows two groups of people, labeled "A" and "B," who are engaged in a tug of war over a platform indicated by "C." Below the platform is a patch of three different colored paints spread on the surface, with each color beneath a respective group and one in the middle. The figures are drawn with simple lines, without detailed features, emphasizing the conceptual nature rather than the visual detail of the proposed event.

In the text below the diagram, the artist describes the event that will occur during an art circus. It involves two teams of artists in a tug of war contest. Each team member is positioned over a platform, and paint is spread in front of the canvas on each side in different colors for each team. The performance is framed by the fact that the competing artists' bare feet will trample over the paint, creating a painting by accident during the contest. The contest's goal is to pull the lead member of the opposing team over the middle (C) of the platform, and thus images of struggle and effort are juxtaposed with the act of creating art.

The artist suggests that this canvas can then be considered a painting with sufficient visual characteristics to be seen as art. Details about the organizational aspects of the event are provided, including the use of a referee and the presumption that the names of the winning artists should be at the bottom of the canvas (right side up) and the losers at the top (upside down) if it is displayed as a painting.

Lastly, a handwritten signature and the date (1975) is visible at the bottom right of the page, suggesting that this image may be of a document drafted by the artist explaining their concept for a competitive painting performance.

This image shows both an illustration and text describing a unique art performance piece called "Tug of War Painting" from 1975. The top portion features a simple line drawing showing two teams of three people engaged in a tug-of-war contest over what appears to be a canvas with colored sections (red, yellow, and blue).

Below the illustration is detailed text explaining the rules and concept: Two teams of artists compete in a tug-of-war over a canvas on a low platform. Before the contest, each participant must sign the canvas on their respective side. Paint is spread in front of the canvas in different colors for each team. The winning team is determined by who first pulls their opponents into the paint on the opposing side, creating an impromptu artwork through the movement and trampling of paint.

The text goes on to explain that circus organizers will handle the setup, including platform construction, canvas preparation, and contestant selection. The resulting artwork becomes the property of the owner, who can choose to display it with the winners' names at the top and losers' names at the bottom, upside down.

This appears to be a conceptual art piece that combines physical competition with artistic creation in an unconventional way.

The image shows a typed description of a tug-of-war style painting contest. It explains that on the occasion of the circus coming to town in 1975, two teams of artists will compete against each other on a low platform, with each team consisting of 5 or more artists. The teams will oppose each other across the platform, and the audience will signal the start of the event, determining the victorious team at the bottom. The winners will receive the canvas they painted on, and if they choose to hang it, the names of the victorious artists will be written upside down at the bottom. The description is signed at the bottom.

Above the typed description is a black-and-white sketch depicting the setup of the contest, with two groups of people pulling on opposite ends of colored rectangles, likely representing the canvases that will be painted on.

This image appears to be a conceptual art piece or instruction manual from 1975 titled "Tug of War Painting." The top portion shows a simple line drawing of two teams engaged in a tug-of-war contest, with a colorful section between them showing yellow, orange, and blue areas.

Below the drawing is detailed text explaining the rules of this artistic performance piece. The concept involves two teams of artists competing in a tug-of-war over a canvas stretched on a low platform. Paint is spread on the canvas before the contest, and as the participants engage in the tug-of-war, they create an abstract composition by trampling the paint. The team that pulls the canvas completely to their side wins.

The text provides specific instructions for organizing the event, including setup requirements, team selection (3 or more people per team), and what happens to the resulting artwork. The winner gets to keep the canvas and can choose how to display it, with the winning artists' names placed at the top and the losers' names at the bottom when hung.

It's an interesting blend of performance art, competitive sport, and collaborative painting that creates art through physical struggle and chance movements.

The image is a piece of paper with a drawing and text on it. The drawing is of a tug-of-war between two teams of people. The drawing is in black and white, with a yellow section in the middle. The text is written in a cursive font and is in black. The text describes a tug-of-war painting event that will occur during the circus. Two teams of artists will oppose each other in a tug-of-war contest. Between each team will exist a canvas stretched over a low platform. Immediately before the contest, each team member must sign the canvas on the side that faces toward his/her team. Circus managers will then spread paint in front of the canvas—a different color for each side. The contest will be won by the team that first manages to pull the lead man (A' or B') of the opposing team over the middle (C') of the platform. The barefeet of the contestants will, beyond doubt, trample paint onto some parts of the canvas and, in that manner, create a composition possessing sufficient visual characteristics to justify its consideration as a "painting." The organizers of the circus will prepare everything necessary for the success of this event: construction of the platform (with the canvas stretched over it), selection of the contestants (3 or more on each team), and selection of a referee to introduce the event to the audience, signal the start of the contest and determine the victorious team. The owner of this drawing will receive the canvas and may hang it as a painting—if he/she chooses to hang it then it should be hanging with the names of the victorious artists at the bottom, the loser's names will be at the top, upside down.
