FLUXUS

Fluxus is a contemporary art movement that rests on blending different artistic desciplines. The father of Fluxus, George Maciunas, defines the art movement in a set of manifestos of which the oldest seems the most general and well-based.

Fluxus is a movement that promotes abolishment of social teers and cultural determinism, the artifical and the objectified. It considers itself a purging movement that brings the artist to the simplicity of his/her spectators. Fluxus art must be reproductive in the masses, i.e. all people should be able to understand it, reproduce equally-good versions of it. Fluxus artists are known for their humbleness and pacificity. They try to fuse "cultural, social, & political interests into one medium, and use various means of expression, sometimes simulteneously to promote their thoughts.

In short, I see that the Fluxus movement fights formality where it makes no sense, classifications where it segragates, divisions between actors and reactors. in Fluxus, rings replace teers, people acquire a freedom lost for conventions and totalitarian social and scientific notions. Fluxus is like dada, it revolts against conventionalism and recreates a free space for creativity at its basic levels wherever needed.
