About Action, Agit-Pop, De-Coll/age, Happenings, Events, L'Autrisme, Art Total, Re-Fluxus

The artwork, titled “Action, Agit-Pop, De-Coll/age, Happenings, Events, L’Autrisme, Art Total, Re-Fluxus,” was created by Joseph Beuys in 1964. Rendered on paper and measuring 56 x 84.6 cm, this poster embodies the Neo-Dada art movement. Presently, it is housed in the Tate Modern in London, UK.

The artwork features a collage of various images and textual elements, arranged in a seemingly chaotic yet intriguing manner. The central section is peppered with small, monochrome photographs and fragments of text. A bold diagonal black stripe cuts through the upper portion of the artwork, with the title “Action, Agit-Pop, De-Coll/age, Happenings, Events, L’Autrisme, Art Total, Re-Fluxus” prominently printed in a scattered alignment across it. The lower part of the poster contains detailed event information, listing the location, date, and participants involved in an event on July 20, 1964, in Aachen. This section is organized with aligned, typewritten text, emphasizing the performative and ephemeral nature of the art documented.
