Allan Kaprow Poster "Maybe the Shortest Parade" 1981
![]()
A poster for an Allan Kaprow "happening", which consisted of a deliberately tiny parade, just a couple of city blocks along 7th Street NW - featuring about 150 local children carrying poles with streamers, rolling tires, banging on oil drums, and blowing whistles. The piece poked fun at the scale and pomp of traditional parades by compressing the event into a short, noisy burst of activity, transforming an everyday street into a fleeting spectacle before quickly dispersing.
