He helped introduce Allan Kaprow's Happenings to Baltimore, blurred the line between Pop art and Nouveau réalisme, and exhibited alongside icons Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein and Robert Rauschenberg. Yet he resisted easy classification, criticizing commercial Pop, dabbling in folk art, surrealist film, performance and assemblage. This monograph is the first academic art historical treatment of Basen, the result of two years of research drawing on letters, diaries, archival footage, interviews and long-lost ephemera. With renewed scholarly interest in outsider and folk traditions, Basen's legacy, marked by raw experimentation and fierce independence, deserves a rightful place in the broader narrative of postwar American art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 224\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.2 x 12 x 8.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 03, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43159471947839,"sku":"9782370742926","price":78.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/sS3TmK-rXH9782370742926.webp?v=1776998866","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/dan-basen-hardcover","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
