Fluxus


" Initially received as little more than an international network of pranksters, the admittedly playful artists of Fluxus were, and remain, a network of radical visionaries who have sought to change political and social, as well as aesthetic, perception.(Artmovement)"


The movement was a combination of visual arts, and many other experimental art forms.

One of the most noted artist of the time Joseph Beuys. I could go on and on about tell you what he did and how he did it but i'd rather let you see for yourself.
Joseph Beuys.

His philosophy on appreciating an object for its artistic composition rather than manipulating it in someway resonates with me. It reminds me of marcel duchamps urinal. Art does repeat itself after all.
