The German artist Wolf Vostell (1932-1998) is a fundamental figure of contemporary art from the second half of the 20th century. He was the discoverer of the 'Décollage' concept as an artistic tool, father of the Happening in Europe, pioneer of video art and initiator of the Fluxus Movement.
Vostell, linked to Extremadura since 1958 after marrying Mercedes filed Cacereña, met in 1974 the Paraje Natural Los Barruecos.
This space combines the beauty of an incomparable natural landscape, town of granite boulders and numerous lagoons, with the emphatic presence of the complex of buildings of the wool laundry there since the mid-18th century. The encounter of this artist with this unexpected situation, resulted the implementation underway of a unique and innovative Museum, as an expression of avant-garde art; a meeting place for art and life.
