Fluxus Films: Selections from Fluxfilm Anthology
Starting in the early 1960s, Fluxus followed in the footsteps of the Futurist and Dada avant-gardes, going against the established grain of “Fine Art” and “Official Art.” Fluxus’s interdisciplinary aesthetic brings together influences as diverse as Zen, science, and daily life and puts them to poetic use. Initially received as little more than an international network of pranksters, the playful artists of Fluxus were, and remain, radical visionaries who sought to reconcile art with life. Dating from the 1960s and compiled by George Maciunas (founder of Fluxus), Fluxfilm Anthology is a document consisting of short films ranging from ten seconds to ten minutes in length. Elements of ephemeral environments, these films, some of which were meant to be screened as continuous loops, were shown as part of the events and happenings of the New York avant-garde. This version is from Anthology Film Archives’s 1992 preservation project.

Presented in conjunction with the gallery exhibition Fluxus Reverb.
