On 16 July 1948 the Experimentele Groep was founded by Karel Appel, Corneille, Theo Wolvecamp, Constant, Jan Nieuwehuys, Anton Rooskens and Eugene Brands. Later on this group became known as the Dutch hard core of the international Cobra movement. The artists closely co-operated with experimental groups a.o. from Paris, Copenhagen, Brussels.



Asger Jorn introduced Jacqueline de Jong to Gruppe Spur, the German branch of the radical left-wing movement Situationist International. After Guy Debord expelled her from the movement in 1962, she founded her own magazine: The Situationist Times. The publication followed the critical principles that formed the basis of the Situationist International.

In The Situationist Times nr 1 Constant wrote a manifest explaining the goals of the Experimentele Groep in The Netherlands.

One of Richard Hambleton lesser-known series of “Shadow men” is the so-called “Blood works” and “Mass Murder series”, where he used his own blood as a medium to push the impact of an image to its limits. A fallen figure on the street (or stair case) was outlined as if that was drawn by the police after a shot incident. A splash of blood as part of such a street painting gave it an eery atmosphere in the city of New York.
Galerie Barbara Farber was the only gallery in Amsterdam in the 80’s that showed American street artists like Richard Hambleton.

In 1986, Haring had his first solo museum exhibition at the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam. During this period, he also actively manifested himself outside the museum in the city. He took to the streets with young graffiti artists and painted the wall of the then-museum depot on the grounds of the Central Market Halls on Jan van Galenstraat, Amsterdam.

As a graphic designer, Karim Hemshed created newspapers, posters, and flyers—everything in the fight against the ‘Amsterdamse stadsvernieling’ and in support of squatter movements. For instance, he drew a circle with an arrow through it using a thick felt-tip pen, which subsequently became a squatter symbol starting in 1979.
