Mary Bauermeister, known as the mother of the Fluxus movement, has exhibited her art in numerous major museums (including Whitney, MoMA and Guggenheim in New York). The radiance of her art, the intimate relationship with her son Simon Stockhausen, who emerged from her marriage to Karlheinz Stockhausen and now serves as her manager and „maid of all work“ (S. Stockhausen), and the equally profound and refreshingly comical remarks about the beauty and finiteness of life make this portrait a real enrichment.
