Rearrangeable Panels (1959) by Allan Kaprow

“Rearrangeable Panels” is an installation artwork created by Allan Kaprow in 1959. The piece belongs to the Conceptual Art movement and stands as a significant example of installation genre within that artistic tradition.

The artwork consists of an assemblage of panels that are designed to be rearranged by the viewer, thus inviting direct interaction and engagement. The panels feature a variety of materials and textures, including broken mirrors, fabric, wooden elements, and a series of spherical objects affixed in a grid-like pattern. Brightly colored items are placed atop the panels, contributing to the overall dynamic visual impact of the piece. The diverse materials and interactive nature of the installation challenge traditional boundaries and encourage the audience to reconsider the nature of art itself.
