Global Art • 1961 • I
The Art of Assemblage is mounted at the Museum of Modern Art. A highly influential exhibition, it features the work of Christo Coetzee, Marcel Duchamp, Kurt Schwitters and Daniel Spoerri.
An entry from the timeline included in the exhibition Dada South? Experimentation, Radicalism and Resistance (2009–2010) at the Iziko National Gallery, which proposed connections between art production in South Africa and abroad against the social and political contexts that framed them. A revised version of this timeline was later featured in the retroactive Flight Paths (2011) exhibition guide commissioned by Clare Butcher.
