Abstract

This paper discusses the year 1968, not as chronological determinant, cultural revolution or social turmoil, but as cluster of events which incorporates series of processes in a much wider time frame in which art and life are intertwined. This is also a peak of the process of questioning dominant conventions, both in art and in other social walks of life.
