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 appropriation?
Appropriation in art involves using pre-existing images or objects with little or no modification. This technique has played a significant role across various art forms, including visual arts, music, performance, and literature. In visual arts, appropriation refers to the practice of adopting, sampling, recycling, or borrowing elements—or even entire forms—of existing visual culture, integrating them into new works to create meaning or critique.
