It was a harbinger of a deliberately enigmatic, "unintelligible", sometimes scandalous actions of artists and poets, Futurism, Dadaism, group Oberiu, often accompanied by their public statements. Happening, in spirit are closely related to the theater of the absurd, can be a kind of mikrospektaklyami with elements of plot and complex props or more abstract rhythmic, dynamic or stable compositions. They consistently emphasizes free "space game", which should feel spectator-partner.

The founder of happening as representations of the elements of chance is John Cage, who carried out the first happening in 1952. In accordance with his opinion about the importance of the case in art, happenings sometimes called "spontaneous plotless theater events.
The term in 1958, was proposed by Allan Kaprow, a disciple of Cage. Kaprow abandon traditional principles of artistic craftsmanship and permanence in art. In America, among the artists to develop art happening during the formative period, in addition to Cage and Kaprow include Jim Dine, Claes Oldenburg, Robert Rauschenberg, Roy Lichtenstein. The idea of happening due to the principle of audience participation, often involves staged a demonstration to the socio-political propaganda, as many of the works of Joseph Beuys, or to shock the public morals.
