Written, printed, or commercially produced materials not originally intended to be seen as independent artworks. These are often related to exhibitions, performances, creative efforts, and cultural movements. Ephemera, such as flyers or posters from a historic protest or concert, can help to broaden the understanding of specific moments in history, and are sometimes the only remaining documentation of important events or performances.
