On that day, on the newsstand outside Barney’s door, he caught sight of a headline: ‘Children Kill Children in Vietnam Riots.’. Artist/ Author: Oliver Boberg
Modelled at two-thirds the size of the original Beanery,[2] it features the smells and sounds of the bar, and models of customers, all of whom have clocks for faces with the time set at 10:10. It took Kienholz six months to consolidate and replicate the bar’s content in an artwork.
Incorporating traces (and trash) of consumerism, his works were mainly a critique of the society. Edward Kienholz was an American artist known for his found-object assemblages and installations he referred to as tableauxs.
Because of the regular wear and tear over the years it had to be restored. Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, 2012 Edward Kienholz (1927–1994) made The Beanery in 1965, basing it on his local bar, The Original Beanery, on Santa Monica Boulevard in Los Angeles.
DE WILDE, Edy and PETERSEN, Ad. "The Beanery" is a time capsule that tells you that the time is subjective... while it's rapidly decaying itself. People’s heads are clocks, always reading 10:10.

He coated everything in resins to suggest transience and decay. Home; Support us; en. In Surfaces and Strategies, I toyed with the idea of using installation to help my audience better understand (feel?) HOLLEIN, Max & Weinhart, Martina. Except for Barney, the owner, all of the customers have clocks instead of faces, with the time set at 10:10. It represents the interior of a Los Angeles bar, Barney's Beanery.

From 1972 onwards, Kienholz collaborated with his fifth wife, Nancy Reddin Kienholz, and all art was then exhibited in their joint names. The harsh contrast between the “real time” represented by the newspaper headline and the “surreal time” of the bar’s customers impelled Kienholz to start work on the tableau. There is a nice video on You Tube which gives information on the restauration and shows the importance of this Kienholz work.
