About this work

You see six small cards, each with a few words printed on them—like instructions for tiny performances. These aren’t just pictures; they’re *Event Scores*, a way to turn everyday actions into art. Brecht wanted anyone to use them—no special skills needed. The cards might say things like "Turn a light on and off" or "Drop a hat." Simple, but they make you think differently about what art can be. If this sparks your curiosity, look up *The Museum of Modern Art* to see more works that play with ideas instead of just images.
