Synopsis
An art historical journey through the early avant-garde. Taking in the Dadaists in Zurich, the Surrealists, Sigmund Freud, WWII and the New Realism of Yves Klein in Paris, the focus comes to rest on the studio Mary Bauermeister (1960-1962) in Cologne, where Nam June Paik performed his legendary composition "Hommage à John Cage".
