Fels launched the art magazine Action: Cahiers individualistes de philosophie et d’art in 1919. Here he expressed his individualist anarchist philosophy. In 1920 he organised a "counter-manifestation" against Dadadism. However, with the development of surrealism Fels' idealistic approach proved unpopular and the magazine closed in 1922.
