Em 1968, realiza no Aterro do Flamengo a manifestação coletiva Apocalipopótese, da qual fazem parte seus Parangolés e os Ovos, de Lygia Pape. Em 1969, realiza na Whitechapel Gallery, em Londres, o que chama de Whitechapel Experience, apresentando o projeto Éden. Vive em Nova York na maior parte da década de 1970, período no qual é bolsista da Fundação Guggenheim e participa da mostra Information, no Museum of Modern Art - MoMA. Retorna ao Brasil em 1978. Após seu falecimento, é criado, em 1981, no Rio de Janeiro o Projeto Hélio Oiticica, destinado a preservar, analisar e divulgar sua obra, dirigido por Lygia Pape, Luciano Figueiredo e Waly Salomão.
