His approach to language, sound, authorship, and everyday life anticipated key Fluxus principles. To echo Bloomsday – the annual Dublin commemoration of Joyce and his character Leopold Bloom, held on June 16, the date on which the events of \u003cem\u003eUlysses\u003c\/em\u003e take place – Galerie Loehr in Frankfurt organized a collective happening exhibition in June 1964.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor the occasion, the gallery published a 32-page collaborative catalogue. Rather than producing a conventional publication, the invited artists created it by cutting a double-sided performance poster into sixteen sections, each incorporating original texts, collages, and documentation. The resulting publication can itself be understood as a performative artist’s book, in which the catalogue format becomes part of the happening itself. Among its contributions are a short manifesto by Stanley Brouwn, a collage by Franz Mon, a typewriter poem by Tomas Schmit, the text for Nam June Paik’s\u003cem\u003e Symphony No. 5\u003c\/em\u003e, and décollages by Wolf Vostell.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Metabooks","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54668828377427,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1068\/8898\/6963\/files\/DSC4486.png?v=1787490211"}],"url":"https:\/\/metabooks.art\/collections\/tomas-schmit.oembed","provider":"Metabooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
