Some have argued that the unique control that curator Jon Hendricks holds over a major historical Fluxus collection ( the Gilbert and Lila Silverman collection ) has enabled him to influence, through the numerous books and catalogues subsidized by the collection, the view that Fluxus died with Maciunas.

The Fluxus artistic philosophy has been defined as a synthesis of four key factors that define the majority of Fluxus work:

Humor has always been an important element in Fluxus.

From 1994 till 2001 he has conducted interviews with Fluxus and mail artists in different communication forms ; the results have been published in booklets and on the internet since 1996.

In his renowned diagram of 1973 showing the development and scope of Fluxus, George Maciunas included Mail Art among the activities pursued by the Fluxus artist Robert Filliou ( who coined the term " the Eternal Network " that has become synonymous with Mail Art ).

The rubber stamp officially used for franking mail, hardly an established or esteemed art medium but already utilised by Dada and Fluxus artists, has been embraced by mailartists who, in addition to reusing readymade rubber stamps, have them professionally made to their own designs, and also carve into erasers with linocut tools to create handmade ones.

Inspired by the example of Cinderella stamps and Fluxus faux-stamps, the artistamp has spawned a vibrant sub-network of artists dedicated to creating and exchanging their own stamps and stamp sheets.

He is also a member of the Maciunas Ensemble, named after George Maciunas of Fluxus fame, and has worked with Arnold Dreyblatt and Ellen Fullman.

He has also been involved with mail art, and he has written extensively about Fluxus and Intermedia.

Friedman has edited several Fluxus publications and has been widely published in peer reviewed academic journals as well as in popular and small press publications.

He has worked closely with other Fluxus artists and composers such as George Maciunas, Dick Higgins, and Nam June Paik, as well as collaborating with John Cage and Joseph Beuys.

Duke University Professor Kristine Stiles has discussed Fluxus as part of a movement towards global humanism achieved through the breakdown of boundaries in artistic media, cultural norms, and political conventions.

For this reason, Fluxus has been described by Fluxus artist and scholar Ken Friedman as “ an active philosophy of experience that sometimes only takes the form of art ” in acting as a critical approach to art, life, and the mechanism of its methodologies.

The George Maciunas / Fluxus Foundation, active since November 2011, has presented exhibitions on the contemporary applications of Maciunas ' inventions and theories regarding education and architecture.

She has twin daughters: Jessica Higgins, a New York-based intermedia artist closely associated with seminal curator Lance Fung, late Fluxus gallerist Emily Harvey, The Artists Museum's Construction In Process and having performed and collaborated as a youth in original Fluxus related events ; and Hannah Higgins, a writer and art historian residing in Chicago, Illinois.

The museum has a contemporary art collection of the Fluxus movement.

Ono was also an experimental filmmaker who made sixteen films between 1964 and 1972, and gained particular renown for a 1966 Fluxus film called simply No. 4, but often referred to as " Bottoms.

He also contributed the short film Police Car and two scores published in Fluxus Preview Review, July 1963, to the nascent avant-garde collective.

In 2003 Litsa Spathi founded together with Ruud Janssen the Fluxus Heidelberg Center for which they are building up a collection of Fluxus material and where they also publish their own works.

Once called “ New York ’ s most famous unknown artist ", Johnson also staged and participated in early performance art events associated with the Fluxus movement and was the founder of a far-ranging mail art network – the New York Correspondence School-which picked up momentum in the 1960s and is still active today.

Correspondence primarily consists of carbons of Higgins ’ letters, with many responses and, in some cases, extensive exchanges with Fluxus, Mail Art and Art and Language artists, Concrete and Sound poets, New Music composers, and Small Press publishers and poets ; also includes art pieces and manuscripts by these correspondents.

As Fluxus artist Robert Filliou wrote, however, Fluxus differed from Dada in its richer set of aspirations, and the positive social and communitarian aspirations of Fluxus far outweighed the anti-art tendency that also marked the group.

Dick Higgins was one of the leading Fluxus people who also published his concrete poetry and invented Intermedia.

He was also an active Fluxus participant and a friend of La Monte Young.

During that period he met a number of Surrealist artists, including Jean Tinguely, Marcel Duchamp and Man Ray, and also a number of artists subsequently associated with the Fluxus movement, including Robert Filliou, Dieter Roth and Emmett Williams.

He contributed to the early Fluxus newspaper VTre, edited by George Brecht, and was also an early member of The Velvet Underground, having been brought into the group by flatmate John Cale when they were living at 56 Ludlow Street in Manhattan.

The view that his death liberated Fluxus is also widespread ;

The international anti-art movement Fluxus also had its beginnings in the 1960s, evolving out of the Beat subculture.

M ' bwebwe is also linked to predecessors such as Dada, Surrealism, Fluxus, Concept Art, punk, industrial music, and electropop, and most importantly, pataphysics.

Since returning to Japan in 1961, Yoko Ono had been recommending colleagues look Maciunas up if they moved to New York ; by the time she had returned, in early 1965, Hi Red Center, Shigeko Kubota, Takako Saito, Mieko Shiomi and Ay-O had all started to make work for Fluxus, often of a contemplative nature.

Other creative forms that have been adopted by Fluxus practitioners include collage, sound art, music, video, and poetry — especially visual poetry and concrete poetry.

Many artists, writers, and composers have been associated with Fluxus over the years, including:

Other Fluxus artists have been involved since the early 1960s in the creation of artist's postage stamps ( Robert Watts, Stamp Dispenser, 1963 ), postcards ( Ben Vautier, The Postman's Choice, 1965: a postcard with a different address on each side ) and other works connected to the postal medium.

Rimbaud acknowledges that EXIT in turn had been involved with the Fluxus Movement ( of which Yoko Ono was a member ).

He was a key member of, and influence on, Fluxus, the international group of avant-garde artists centred around George Maciunas, having been involved with the group from the first performances in Wiesbaden 1962 until Maciunas ' death in 1978.

There have been numerous members and collaborators alongside Andrew M. McKenzie, including Cabaret Voltaire co-founder Chris Watson, the ( semi ) fictitious Dr. Edward Moolenbeek, Steven Stapleton of Nurse With Wound, Adi Newton of Clock DVA, Z ' EV, Fluxus artist Willem de Ridder, David Tibet ( of Current 93 ), Genesis P-Orridge, Annie Sprinkle, Jónsi Birgisson ( of Sigur Rós ), Michael Gira ( of Swans and Angels of Light ), Chloe Vevrier, Erla Þórarinsdóttir, Blixa Bargeld, Netochka Nezvanova, Hilmar Örn Hilmarsson, John Lacey of COUM Transmissions, and Autechre among many others.

Schneemann's works have been associated with a variety of art classifications including Fluxus, Neo-Dada, the Beat Generation, and happenings.

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.

Other precursors to anarcho-punk include avant-garde art and political movements such as Fluxus, Dada, the Beat generation, England's angry young men ( such as Joe Orton ), the surrealism-inspired Situationist International, the May 1968 uprising in Paris, and the CND.

Fluxus is similar in spirit to the earlier art movement of Dada, emphasizing the concept of anti-art and taking jabs at the seriousness of modern art.

The Futurist art movement was important for the development of the noise aesthetic, as was the Dada art movement ( a prime example being the Antisymphony concert performed on April 30, 1919 in Berlin ), and later the Surrealist and Fluxus art movements, specifically the Fluxus artists Joe Jones, Yasunao Tone, George Brecht, Robert Watts, Wolf Vostell, Yoko Ono, Nam June Paik, Walter De Maria's Ocean Music, Milan Knížák's Broken Music Composition, early LaMonte Young and Takehisa Kosugi.

From about the mid-1960s into the 1970s, often derived from concepts of visual art, with respect to Antonin Artaud, Dada, the Situationists, Fluxus, Installation art, and Conceptual Art, performance art tended to be defined as an antithesis to theatre, challenging orthodox art forms and cultural norms.

He is a conceptual artist in the tradition of Dada, the Surrealists, Marcel Duchamp, the Fluxus group and Ray Johnson.

The blurring of cultural conventions, which began in the early 20th century with movements such as Dada and Futurism, was continued by Fluxus artists in correspondence with the changes taking place in the sixties.

Beginning in Switzerland, during World War I, much of Dada, and some aspects of the art movements it inspired, such as Neo-Dada, Nouveau réalisme and Fluxus, is considered anti-art.

Similar to Dada, in the 1960s, 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.

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 this he embraced a 20th-century tradition stretching from Dada through Fluxus and Austrian Actionism.
