TARsuse! ... i WIILLL!!

Now to your Qs:
So far as I understand it BFI, IFB and even IFSEQ (Institute of Fluxus in South East Queensland) are one and the same but Ill stand corrected but the Institute concerned with FLUXUS is based in Brisbane _ perhaps its director might help you out here via the list;
As for whos up that is a matter for the Institute  Im mostly concerned with a dinner ingredient for 18/02/05 @ 7ish
News will be forthcoming via updates onhttp://www.trevallyn.com/zF_story.htm (stuff there already) and Ill post other stuff to the list if there is ANYinterest;
As for prestidigitatingFLUXTER that sort of thing is up to the Institute BUT its a GOODidea and perhaps it could be an international award with nominations being made via the list?? AND voting could even be via the list??

THIS IS A SMALL FLUXUS LETTER TO REMEMBER EMILY
THE BRIDGE
Emily built a beautiful bridge between down town Broadway and Venice  
and another between Venice and Nice
Just like in a good science fiction movie you could get on the bridge  
from Gate One the last  steps from her Broadway gallery and  find  
yourself on Gate Two on top of the famous Venice  Rialto bridge
To build such a bridge you don't need stones or steel but details and  
moments and Emily was a specialist in accumulating moments words  
details observations
To keep the bridge there we  must just remember them So
I remember  Emily, she used to eat with us on the terrace in the sun  
and talk about ecology.
I remember  Emily with her funny little hats
I remember Emily accepting a show of mine in N.Y. in witch I proposed  
to brake up America and give Alabama to the Senegal
I remember Emily as a great organiser deciding when to live, what to  
show
I remember an  Emily who  loved deciding
I remember  Emily falling in love for new born cats
I remember Emily journeying with all the show in a suitcase
I remember of an Emily a bit correct but a bit stingy
On who pays for the drinks
I remember Emily saying she came straight down from the Mayflower bunch
I remember Emily  talking about swimming in cold water
I remember Emily et ses rires d'enfant
I remember  son émerveillement devant les genêts si parfumés de  
Pierrefeu
 (your turn all of you now to remember )

I remember
SOME OTHER FLUXUS NEWS
The project of a Fluxus meeting festival in Rue de Seine of Paris
Is always on my mind Two or three gallerys are always eager to show the  
Fluxus works
Problem : problem is time, energy, and work
I am afraid of too much  stress

I am jealous of Ben Patterson journeying around the world taking the  
Transiberian. Hee never stops

Knizac invited me to go to Pragues. Why not? Prague is a beautiful town  
and full of beautiful women
I am afraid of drinking too much beer

I saw a fantastic photo of WALTER Marchetti with a piano covered WITH  
fruits  Everybody came to eat on the piano

Michaud Has still remaining some edition of the Fluxus THROW AWAY PHOTO  
edition. Its a great piece. And cheap

In Europe where ever you go you fall nos days on a John Armleder  show  
- Swiss power.

I Received a fantastic Fluxus open letter from Allen Bukoff, Michigan I  
will with his authorisation put it on the net on my Fluxus page In a  
few days. Go and read it its on the fluxus tongue
http://www.ben-vautier.com/

The Fluxus room in Beaubourg show son et lumieres  was with La Monte  
Young's room the best room in the show

Charles Dreyfus is in Perpignan walking around
In Genova (italy)George Brecht works are getting more and more  
expensive. Sometimes you wonder if they are just instruction cords  or  
real works

Passing by Milano I had a beautiful meal or spaghetti with Gino and  
Viviana and

Gallery Depardieu shows Giuseppe Chiari in Nice (with Pedrini
Collection)
Fluxus artists don't stop doing shows, talks, concerts
Erik Andersen is one of those
I love receiving Jean Toche's letter witch I collect preciously
Some day Somebody should compile all his letters together in a big box  
or book and send it to Bush as a present.

Fluxus favorites at the Moderna Museet in  Danmark
In Nice, Brandi, Kristof and Bataillard play so insupportable badly
that could be Fluxus
I am interested in what I would call post Fluxus situation that is to  
say all this young artist full of ideas about life and art
For instance Jean Mas, who is interested in showing a little
(in french : P)
Sometimes I call them attitude art
Jacques Lizene de Liège is one of them

I received a fantastic book by Gabor Toth.
Full of his art limit ideas. I was quite jealous
I am suppose to comment Fluxus'films of Paik and others at Beaubourg in  
a few days
I don't know what really to say Maybe I just say that.

Clavez in Paris is doing a god university job informing everybody
In France about Fluxus. I feel sometimes he forget Nice but Nice was  
important. It would be find if he could bring out the book at a  
sometime Fluxus show in Rue de Seine in Paris

Takako's joint work with George Brecht at a fair of Bologna was  
fantastic. Full of imperceptible details  and had lots of sucess
(lara vincy gallery)

In France Berguez died.  People don't know about him but he was very  
close to Fluxus sending mail art about life and sex

Maciunas is becoming a myth. Daniella Palazzoli  talks about meeting  
with him in New York in a epistolic way as if she met jesus

Jacques Pinaud the artist  has lost his memory it is his last Fluxus  
piece.
In french I received this letter from Catherine his wife about him
Jacques est très calme et serein. Il a souhaité avoir un réveil

here in Launceston Tasmania;
3. Restrict each contribution to an A4 format size or similar; and
4. Send a contribution to secretFLUXUStrevallyn by eMail to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] OR
5. Lodge contribution on your Website and simply send [EMAIL PROTECTED] the

IF people do so we at secretFLUXUStrevallyn will, without fear or favour:
1. Record/document all contributions and put them up on
http://www.SillyWeek.com;
2. Display hardcopy printouts during worldSILLYweek in Launceston Tasmania;

For may day I plan to take out my telescopic maypole
and encourage folk to dance round on the platforms of
stations, booking halls, cab ranks, car parks, behind
the potting shed, between the lines, over the top, by
a waterfall, underneath the arches, and everywhere
mayday is celebrated.
 later, after much rejoicing, the pole will be sawn up
and raffled at the mayfair here in rudheath.

any may left over will be ground up and sold in bags
and any left over wil be buried under the may tree and
dug up next year.

A friend of mine tried to get there, He'll be back in switzerlabd and
hopefully report about the whole thing. Seemingly, they gave 100 tickets
to the press, the rest (200) was sold out within 2 hours and weeks before
the whole thing started, though.

One of my favorite wearable gourd items are the gourd bras that Larry

in Mt Gilead OH in the late 80s.  Not sure if he is still around in the

Hi, have just managed to plough through inbox to clear backlog, Interesting 
stuff. I love the box thing sounds great and would love to be involved if 
possible. Is there any selection involved? How do I know if my work is 
suitably fluxy?

As a new subscriber myself would be sad to lose others who want to subscribe 
to list, but impressed by integrity and seriousness of everyone involved in 
censorship issue. Things have become more interesting with something 
positive to focus on (the box). Liked the proposed guidelines for new 
subscribers and would also be interested in more info about existing 
subscribers.

I know Im new here so maybe I shouldnt get involved, but was wondering if we 
could do a quick online version of flux box, with everyone e mailing a copy 
of their work to the list?

Also was interested in the seed thing Brad was writing about. Can you tell 
me more? I have been making a work involving seeds in gelatin medicine 
capsules, and if it all works can post one to you.

Happy new year, zoe

Tell us allen, dear, how does it work?

Several idiots project their own negativity + egos onto us,

FLUXLIST is a simpleton gathering, or an art list?

lets see what you might do:

1. start writing the illustrated story of your life beginning with your
earliest recollection.

2. knit a lap robe with the word FLUXUS knitted into the pattern in a
contrasting colour.

3. make drawings of all the people that enter the gallery in a small
notebook so as not to be noticed.

4. send lengthy posts to all your fluxlist friends one at a time.

5. meditiate and/or find a pub that delivers pints.

   (CNN asks that you copy and e-mail this statement to
   whomever asks about it.)

   There is absolutely no truth to the information that
is now
   distributed on the Internet that CNN used
10-year-old video
   when showing the celebrating of some Palestinians in
East
   Jerusalem after the terror attacks in the U.S. The
video was shot
   that day by a Reuters camera crew. CNN is a client
of Reuters and
   like other clients, received the video and broadcast
it. Reuters
   officials have publicly made the facts clear as well.

   The allegation is false. The source of the
   allegation has withdrawn it and
   apologized. It was started by a Brazilian
   student who now says he immediately
   posted a correction once he knew the information was
not true.
   This is the statement by his university -- UNICAMP --
   Universidad Estatal de Campinas-Brasil.

   Again, please read this -- and copy it -- and send
it to anyone
   you know who may have the false information. Thank you.

   OFFICIAL STATEMENT by Universidad de Campinas-Brasil

   17/09/01

   UNICAMP (Universidad Estatal de Campinas-Brasil)
would like to
   announce that it has no knowledge of a videotape
from 1991,
   whose images supposedly aired on CNN showing
Palestinians
   celebrating the terrorist attacks in the U.S. The
tape was
   supposedly from 1991, and there were rumors that the
images
   were passed off as current.

   This information was later denied, as soon as it
proved false, by
   Márcio A. V. Carvalho, a student at UNICAMP. He
approached the
   administration today, 17.09.2001, to clarify the
following:

   -- the information he got, verbally, was that a
professor from
   another institution (not from UNICAMP) had the tape;

   -- he sent the information to a discussion group
e-mail list;

   -- many people from this list were interested in the

if j.pierce is not seeking attention, why seven messages in the space of an

i think i am in favour of a more narrow scope for fluxlist just to limit the
number of messages in my inbox. imagine if i only checked my email once a
week, from an outside source. i'd have to sift thru hundreds of messages,
most of which (including my own, i suppose) are nothing more than pissing
matches.

i have tried to offer assistance, when i was able, to questions pertaining
to fluxus artists. i have used the board to post questions about topics that
i was researching (a question about george brecht's cedilla store went
unanswered last year, i recall). but recently i've given up reading the
messages at all because they are so rarely on topic and therefore of little
interest.

the word 'narrow' has bad connotations, but one of the webs best features is
that it can filter out the info we don't want. the list is not called
'art-list' or (worse) 'life-list'. it was created to give people interested
in a certain topic an opportunity for information and discourse. i suspect
that only the very loneliest of us would sign up for something called
'freeforalllist'.

in terms of using this forum to distribute one's own art:

yes, it's fantastic that artists have the means with which to create and
share their work. this, however, does not make for better work
(necessarily). it's like listening to karaoke sometimes.

perhaps if contributors were to sit on their posts for a day, before
sending. the next morning might reveal the previous days epic to be, well, a
little lacking. some fights could be prevented this way also (as someone's
mother undoubtedly told you count to ten).

if this thinking is in any way oppressive, or in total contradiction to
fluxlist, i can be removed without warning. there are a few things that i
will miss, but these are becoming more and more rare - if only because i
read less and less posts now.

thanks,

dave

Friday, May 4th a KOCH Progressive/Mi5 Recordings
party will be held at the 
Stephan
Gang Art gallery for May 4th 8:00 PM.  Location is:
Stephan Gang Art Gallery
522  West 20th between 10th and 11th
4th floor
This is in celebration of Pop/Art/Music and Mi5/Koch
Progressive to welcome 
the bands 
from the UK, Midge Ure, Jesus Jones, and those living
stateside, Mercyside 
and the Blue 
Mockingbirds and master cellist Dave Eggers. It is a
low key event.  Mi5 
Recordings, 6 
NYU art graduates and  Fluxus artists (the original
New York, Yoko 
Ono/Lichenstein art 
movement) will supply the installations and art work. 
Members of the renown 
FLUX 
string quartet will be present and possibly will
supply music, if I can iron 
out there 
differences (modern chamber music, and Bartok,
Stravinski).  There will be 
videos and art
 installations, and possibly an acoustic jam. Editors
from Art in America and 
other 
prominent art journalists will be present.  This is a
welcoming party and is 
low key kind of 
BYOB thing.  (Yes there will be alcohol!).  The
artists I have chosen are 
well known in New 
York but are young and up and coming.  I would rather
give new artists a 
space then those 
established in Soho and other areas.   The link
between art, pop music, and 
Britain is an 
important issue for us at Mi5 Recordings and KOCH
Progressive, and I want to 
engage in 
this behavior ASAP!!!

First--

In joining any list, one is made aware of the rules and 
guidelines of the
list.  One enters into a contract with these in joining.
Of course, with time and experience, one may find oneself 
disagreeing with
the tenor and tenets of the list.  This often happens. An interesting
question would then be, how to work for a positive, constructive change, if
one cares enough about the issues and events of the list--how to effect
this--without resorting to "flaming" or to simply leaving and beginning a
new list, which may incorporate those changes one sees fit and inviting
others to join this.

The bottom line is that one is aware from the outset of the guidelines,
rules--and has entered into a contract of one's own volition.

(Unless of course coerced by say, having to join it for a class or peer
pressure etc)

That said, the issue of the censored person--any question of 
censorship is
disturbing.  Two other lists I am on have had to deal with this--one
decisively, according to its tenets, the other indecisevely, and the problem
drags on.  In that way, the flamer (as in "flaming asshole", often--: "he's
a real flamer"--meaning this)--the flamer has accomplished her/his goal and
made buffoons of the others.  Eventually, this too leads to censorship, but
in more hypocritical fashion.

There is a Zen parable relating to this idea of "beating a dead horse":

A master and his pupil are on a journey through mountainous and deeply
forested country to an isolated temple.
On the way, they encounter a a dangerous, rushing stream.

A beautiful young woman stands at the edge of one side, with 
a heavy sack.
She is afraid to cross, though she must.

The master puts her atop his shoulders and carries her 
across.  They part
ways, she taking another path.

Many miles and hours later, the pupil says to the 
master--"why did you pick
up that woman?  Isn't it against our vows?"

The master replies:  "I put the woman down at the edge of the 
stream.  You
have been carrying her ever since".


 As a child I often noticed the strange fact that very 
intelligent people
often yearned to demonstrate their intelligence--whether it was of their own
conception and self-proclamation or bolstered by "proofs" in the way of
tests, grades, degrees and so on--
they yearned to prove this by argumentation.  Rapidly, the 
principles and
questions of the arguments were abandoned, and it became a clash of
personalities.  Victory would somehow prove not only intelligence but a
certain kind of might.  "Might makes right"--"the squeaky wheel gets the
grease"--
And so one received one's first lessons in sophistry and rhetoric.

Thinking of this question of "putting principles before personalities",
came across an interesting quote from Kierkegaard, cited by the Surrealist
painter  Andre Masson in an essay called "Painting is a Wager"  (written in
1941 and included in THEORIES OF MODERN ART Edited by Herschel Chipp.
Berkeley: U Cal Press, 1968; 436-40.  The Kierkegaard quote is appended as a
note by Masson, p. 440).

I think it applies well to the kind of arguments and such 
that employ mere
power plays connected with personalities rather than an essay in the action
of a generative questioning and understanding of actions, events, questions,
examples--and lead to more thought and work rather than the excruciating
noise of ever louder amplifiers, leading to demogogery and the like.
(Demi-god-ery for example.)

Kierkegaard:

We must not take the word contradiction in the mistaken sense 
in  which Hegel used it and which he made others 
and contradiction   itself believe that 
it had a creative power.

Though personally I often enjoy the "witz" as Bertrand calls
them (jokes) and participate in them, I also, like Bertrand, joined
the list hoping to find a continual learning and opening up of
questions which are involved with the history and events and ideas
and objects of Fluxus, and their relations with other art/performance
questions.
Also, one hopes to contribute to this--

The agreement or disagreement is not so important as what one 
may find--and
be able to make use of!

Which raises the old question of the artist/maker as thief--
or--speaking of wagers as Masson and someone on the list did--that
famous wagerer Pascal's proposition that "it is not the elements that
are new, but the order of their arrangement".

Which bears on the question raised on the list of the 
constancy or not such
of nature--the question entropy/negentropy.

(Two good books on this are:  ART AND ENTROPY by Rudolf Arnheim (U
Cal P I forget the year, also the title I may have 
reversed--itmay be
"Entropy and Art"), and ORDER OUT OF CHAOS by Ilya 
Prigogine and
Isabelle

it was not a personal attack on you at all (your posts are far better than

The Queens Museum of Art presents William Glackens: A Journey From Realism
To Impressionism,
on view now through April 30, 2000.



http://www.e-flux.com/special.php3?link=www.queensmuse.org/exhibitionsname=
The+Queens+Museum+of+Art


Born and raised in Philadelphia and the son of a railroad worker, William
Glackens became
a magazine illustrator at the age of twenty-one. A year later, he enrolled
in night classes
at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and also spent three years
sketching and painting
in Paris. Glackens and three other Philadelphia artist/journalists––John
Sloan, George Luks,
Everett Shinn––were attracted to New York City by their mentor, Robert
Henri, who instilled
in them an empathy for the city's immigrants, suffragettes, and others.
Arthur B. Davies,
Ernest Lawson, and Maurice Prendergast soon joined the group and became
known as "The Eight".
Their 1908 exhibition at the Macbeth Gallery in New York created a
sensation. They had dared
to depict the back alleys of New York, warts and all, and were henceforth
called the Ash Can School.

William Glackens: A Journey From Realism To Impressionism is curated by
Jorge Santis of the Museum
of Art, Fort Lauderdale, and the Queens Museum of Art curator William
Valerio.

Much of the work is on loan from the Glackens family bequest to the Museum
of Art, Fort Lauderdale
and includes notebooks and sketches not previously exhibited.

hello,

i can't believe i'm getting into a fluxpissing match (and over something
that could only possibly be of interest to subscribers in toronto...)

the connection to fluxus and pop music is hardly weak - the two most
influential bands in pop music had fluxus members in them! John Cale of the
Velvets contributed a film of Police Car Lights to a Fluxfest and John
Lennon contributed several works and attended festivals. Also their
connections, respectively, to La Monte Young and Yoko Ono made for an even
stronger connection/influence.

sampling and cut-n-paste rock is the aural equivalent to visual collage and
the essence of the Playing with Matches show. clearly it was also
opportunism on the part of wayne b of plug in gallery, but who cares? the
show has raised al hansens profile considerably, and that of fluxus and may
get teenagers into art galleries. none of those are bad things

when terrance said 'rock and roll is avant garde' he was being incredibly
facetious. the affectation in his voice was clear.

as for the panel defining fluxus - it wasn't supposed to and couldn't
possibly! i have corresponded with most of the main (remaining) fluxus
artists and very few still use the word to describe their work. fewer still
can articulate what fluxus was (with the notable exceptions of dick higgins
and ken friedman who both write well on the subject).

yes, snow and sook yin lee spoke about their own work rather than defining
fluxus. have you read these fluxlist digests? i've not read one that comes
close to a defination but many talk about the contributors own projects.
both the panel and the fluxlist are intended to start conversation, not be
didactic or authorative.

incidentally, most fluxus artists use the term event over happening.
happenings were messier and included several actions (often improv)
simultaneously. and event was a purer, simple gesture, like george brechts
"exit".

sure it's fun to break violins but the piece can not possibly have as much
relevance as it once did. i was more interested in jean yoons discussion of
yoko's mending pieces than in simply breaking things. or a woman who spoke
of concretism and said she was still enjoying the piece an hour later
because she could see the parts of the shattered violin.

i should add that i am a fan of beck (not the current record or tour) and i
thot some of his works for the al hansen show were decent enough, all things
considered. i noticed a richard prince influence. i am also a sonic youth
fan and an aquiantence of guitarist lee renaldo. i started him on his
something else press bookshelf a few years back. their new record is
excellent and the entire band are extemely devoted to the visual arts (as
can be seen by their collaborations with mike kelly, gerhard richter,
christian marclay, raymond pettibon, richard kern, etc).

hope i haven't come across as an ass, here.

can anyone tell me about albert fine? he is never well represented in fluxus
histories but the few things of his i've seen are excellent. funny like ray
johnson or ben vautier, i recall.

thanks for the responses people!  here are some thoughts

 also went to the toronto panel discussion and it was a little of a let
down for me too... felt like things went all over the place. didn't leave
me with a better understanding of fluxus:undefinable...?

get the fluxus reader.  dick higgins' writing is especially good.

the panel was not an acceptable introduction to fluxus.  and the connection
of
dada, fluxus and so on to pop music sampling is weak at best.  (it seems
like the power plant was merely trying to capitalise on beck's fame)  yes,
john cage set a huge precedent for pop music by making the first musique
concrete piece and with all his work (and he had his influences too:
cowell, varese, russolo, shoenberg).  but the avant garde is NOT rock and
roll.  this is where terence failed in my opinion, however i did appreciate
his genuine interest and effort, and thought he was certainly the best
speaker and most familiar with the 'facts,' something i can't say for
michael snow (whose film wavelength is wonderful).  (by the way,
terence said la monte young burned a violin but he didn't say it
was actually a piece by richard maxfield, performed by la monte young.)

also, i think the violin smashing piece is as wonderful
today as when originally performed.

an example of the kind of cross-over that i really like is sonic youth's
recent album 'goodbye 20th century'  this is the conflation of two cultural
worlds, an honest negotiation of the high/low culture dichotomy, similar to
a central concern of fluxus and dada: the art/life dichotomy.  don't get me
wrong, i like beck, i just think it's very commercial (and therefore
anti-fluxus) to conclude that a blood ti

Please view this new project. Maybe you
have seen these signs on the street asking you to describe your living
quarters? Can you describe your living quarters to me even if you have
not seen the signs?
