Fluxus

Fluxus is a latin word mean "to flow". The concept of Fluxus started with composer John Cage in his experimental music of the 1950s. Cage explored notions of chance in art. Fluxus was named and loosely organized by Maciunas. The Fluxus community began in a small but global network of artists and composers who were already at work when Maciunas met them through poet Jackson Mac Low in the early 1960s. In its early days Fluxus artists were active in Europe (especially in Germany), and Japan as well as in the United States.
People who practiced Fluxus beleived in simplicity over complexity. Like Dada before it, Fluxus included a strong current of anti-commercialism and an anti-art sensibility, disparaging the conventional market-driven art world in favor of an artist-centered creative practice. In terms of an artistic approach, Fluxus artists preferred to work with whatever materials were at hand.
Fluxus is an attitude. It is not a movement or a style. Fluxus works are simple. The art is small, the texts are short, and the performances are brief. Fluxus is fun. Humour has always been an important element in Fluxus. Fluxus canbe done by anyone at anytime and is ment to express your iner feelings and movements.
