A rare first edition of Kaprow’s collection of “Happenings”, his term for a contemporary form of Avant Garde art. Per Kaprow’s preface: This book is an introduction to a recent development in the arts. It concentrates on the background, the theory, and some of the implications of these developments. Beyond a brief example here and there, it does not attempt to study particular works. Stretching out, instead, an overall view.

Lettering in salmon to cover and spine. Near fine. Glassine wrapper slightly yellowed and crinkled. Lettering has some very small cracking at some edges.
