Gerhard Rühm is noted for his work in acoustic art, including sound poetry, spoken word, and photomontage. In the early 1950s he developed a body of work, crossing the boundaries between many different mediums. He also experimented in drawing, visual poetry, and photomontage, using such diverse techniques as overpainting (l’essentiel de la grammaire [The Essentials of Grammar], 1962) and collage (Typocollagen [Type Collage], 1955–1963).
