This is quite impressive. Don't pass up the chance to see The Bride &

Thanks Candace.
It's really well done!

Re: FLUXLIST: Fluxus: Dead or Alive

[clifford]

this sort of discussion reminds me of similar ones to dada. I remember sitting there in Paris, when I was like knee high to a grasshopper, and I asked Uncle Tristan Tzara, I said Uncle Dada, is Dada dead? He said all true dadas are dead, and thunked my Signifier right across the head, like a true zany ZenDada desiremachine would.

Is Fluxus dead or alive?

In a nutshell, it seems to me that Fluxus is dead if it is defined as a
movement in art and culture associated with the group of artists who came
together in the early 1960s with George Maciunas at its centre. However, if
Fluxus is defined as an approach to art and culture centred around the idea
of Intermedia, then it remains very much alive. I am strongly inclined
towards the latter view.

This of course is a question which may never be finally settled, especially
given the tautological nature of the "Fluxus is dead" argument... I.E. If
Fluxus is defined as a movement that existed between 1962 and 1978 or
between any other relatively static dates than the definition itself
precludes the possibility that Fluxus is still alive.

The group known as Secret Fluxus that was active on this list a while back
epitomized this dialogue since they were alive and active Fluxus artists 
who

seemed to believe that their performances were "re-enactments" rather the
new performances of Fluxus events.

FLUXLIST: Fluxus and Temporal Space

[Allan Revich]

A 
Question: A while back I began making labels that said "Fluxus Free 
Zone" and then applied them in public spaces. I continue to do so. Part of the 
Fluxusness of this was the Intermedia aspect via the interface between 
art/design/technology/literature/high-art-low-art/etc. But as I began 
experimenting with the "Red Circle with Nothing in it" project I began to 
realize that another more challenging theme was running through my Fluxworks. 
 That is the theme of changing a space by defining it. In the case 
of the Fluxus Free Zones the space is public and is defined by the time that the 
label remains in affixed to its substrate and by its visibility within the 
public space. The Red Circle project defines a smaller physical space - the page 
on which it appears - but the red circle with nothing in it also defines a much 
larger metaphysical space through the implicit existential questions it 
raises. Anyway, what I'm wondering, is how pervasive this theme is 
within the Fluxus/Intermedia oeuvre? It seems that the idea of transformative 
space is implicit in much of Fluxus; there is the the space contained in a 
Fluxkit/Fluxbox which is temporally modified when the objects are removed and 
played with; there is the temporal aspect in the Event Scores and Event 
Performances too. But how deeply is the idea of transformed space embedded into 
Fluxus? Allan

FLUXLIST: Fluxus: Dead or Alive

[Allan Revich]

Is Fluxus dead or 
alive?
 
In a nutshell, it 
seems to me that Fluxus is dead if it is defined as a movement in art and 
culture associated with the group of artists who came together in the 
early 1960s with George Maciunas at its centre. However, if Fluxus is defined as 
an approach to art and culture centred around the idea of Intermedia, then it 
remains very much alive. I am strongly inclined towards the latter 
view.
 
This of course is a 
question which may never be finally settled, especially given the tautological 
nature of the "Fluxus is dead" argument... I.E. If Fluxus is defined as a 
movement that existed between 1962 and 1978 or between any other relatively 
static dates than the definition itself precludes the possibility that Fluxus is 
still alive.
 
The group known as 
Secret Fluxus that was active on this list a while back epitomized this dialogue 
since they were alive and active Fluxus artists who seemed to believe that their 
performances were "re-enactments" rather the new performances of Fluxus 
events.
