Art of the Fluxus movement

10 articles

The Fluxus movement, emerging in the 1960s, was a radical and experimental art movement characterized by a strong anti-commercial and anti-art establishment ethos. Fluxus artists blended different artistic media and disciplines, from visual arts to music and performance. The movement emphasized art as an experience rather than an artifact, focusing on the process and act of creation.

Fluxus art often incorporated humor, simplicity, and spontaneity, challenging traditional notions of art and seeking to bring art into everyday life. Key figures included Yoko Ono, George Maciunas, and Nam June Paik, whose works ranged from event scores to unconventional installations.
