Allan Kaprow (1927-2006) was an American painter and assemblagist who is recognized for establishing the concepts of performance art. For Kaprow, art was found in the everyday and happenings were unique experiential events dependent upon each viewer's reaction. Happenings had no structure and there was no distinction between the performers and the audience. Through happenings, the separation between life, art, artist, and audience was blurred.
