Fahlström (b. 1928 Brazil, d. 1976 Sweden) was a pioneering Swedish artist and writer known for his highly innovative approach to painting, sculpture, and performance. Fahlström's work is characterized by its playful yet deeply political nature, often incorporating elements of popular culture, language, and game-like structures to explore themes of power, economics, and global politics. His multimedia works, which include interactive installations and large-scale collages, challenge the viewer to engage with the complexities of the modern world. A key figure in the international avant-garde movement of the 1960s and 1970s, Fahlström's contributions to conceptual and multimedia art have left a lasting impact, particularly in his ability to merge art with social and political commentary.

What is Happening?
A Happening is a term used to describe artistic and theatrical events held by artists in the 1950s and 60s. These events were typically staged in gallery installations or planned environments and often involved audience participation, along with elements like lighting, sounds, and slide projections. Happenings were a precursor to performance art, which later included the active participation of the artists themselves.
