Detailed Description

Happening is an avant-garde, often interactive, performance art that emerged in the late 1950s. It was originally associated with the Neo-Dada movement, but has since expanded to include other artists and styles. Happenings are typically unscripted and improvised, and often involve the audience in some way. They can be playful and lighthearted, or serious and thought-provoking. Some of the most famous Happenings include: – Yoko Ono’s “Cut Piece” (1964), in which she invited audience members to cut off her clothes with scissors. – Robert Rauschenberg’s “Erased de Kooning Drawing” (1953), in which he erased a drawing by Willem de Kooning. – John Cage’s “4’33” (1952), in which he sat silently at a piano for four minutes and 33 seconds. – Allan Kaprow’s “18 Happenings in 6 Parts” (1959), which was one of the first and most influential Happenings. If you’re interested in experiencing a Happening yourself, there are often opportunities to do so at art galleries and museums. Or, you can create your own Happening by inviting friends to participate in an improvised performance with you.
