Wolf Vostell

Wolf Vostell (German: [vɔlf ˈfɔstəl]; 14 October 1932 – 3 April 1998) was a German painter and sculptor, considered one of the early adopters of video art, street art and installation art and pioneer of Happenings and Fluxus. Techniques such as blurring and Dé-coll/age are characteristic of his work, as are paintings inspired by graffiti, embedding objects in concrete and the use of television sets in his works.
