Global Art • 1968 • III
Belgian artist Marcel Broodthaers exhibits his work Musée d'Art Moderne, Département des Aigles, Section Publicité in his home. In this and other works, many of which incorporate found objects, he calls into question the institutions that surround the production and consumption of art.

An entry from the timeline included in the exhibition Dada South? Experimentation, Radicalism and Resistance (2009–2010) at the Iziko National Gallery, which proposed connections between art production in South Africa and abroad against the social and political contexts that framed them. A revised version of this timeline was later featured in the retroactive Flight Paths (2011) exhibition guide commissioned by Clare Butcher.
