Imens i livet hos Vostell, Wolf
Hele livet1970
Moves to Berlin
He moves to Berlin; the same year he creates “Heuschrecken” (“Locusts”), an installation with 20 monitors and a video camera, as well as the installations “TV-Schuhe” and “TEK”.
January 1970
“Concrete Traffic” in Chicago: a Cadillac in concrete
The Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago sponsors a happening in which Vostell encases a 1957 Cadillac in concrete in a parking lot near the museum. The work is then moved to the University of Chicago campus, where it remains for nearly four decades.
1974
Discovers Malpartida de Cáceres
He visits the village of Malpartida de Cáceres in Extremadura and the nearby rocky landscape of Los Barruecos: the bizarre granite boulders remind him of his own concrete sculptures, and he declares the place a “work of art of nature”. In the midst of this “surreal” landscape stands the 18th-century Lavadero de Lanas, and Vostell resolves to create a “meeting place of art, life and nature” here.
1974
First major retrospective in Paris and Berlin
His first major retrospective takes place at ARC 2 in the Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris; an expanded version is shown at the Neue Nationalgalerie in Berlin (other accounts give 1975).
