FLUXLIST: Jean Brown Papers

[Sol Nte]

At the Getty Research Institute for the History of Art and the Humanities

"The Jean Brown papers (1815-1995, bulk 1916-1995) form a significant
ensemble of original works and printed matter, and document Brown's intent
to build a study collection of avant-garde materials. Dada and Surrealism
provided the core inspiration for Brown's acquisitions, as well as for the
later artists whose work she collected. In-depth holdings by artists
participating in Fluxus, happenings, concrete, sound and visual poetry, new
music, mail art, copy art, rubber stamp printing, and video and performance
art underscore her range of interests. The collection's broad scope presents
a comprehensive account of alternative movements, distribution networks and
exhibition venues of the 1960s and 1970s."
