Fluxus, an avant-garde movement that emerged in the 1960s, sought to challenge traditional notions of art and redefine the boundaries of artistic expression. Its practitioners, a diverse group of artists, musicians, and performers, embraced a spirit of experimentation and collaboration, giving birth to a myriad of groundbreaking works.

Fluxus Forms: Breaking the Boundaries of Artistic Expression

Fluxus forms defied conventional art forms, embracing ephemerality, participation, and everyday objects. Artists such as George Maciunas, Nam June Paik, and Yoko Ono pushed the limits of artistic expression through happenings, performances, and installations. These works invited audience participation, blurring the lines between artist and spectator, and challenging the passive consumption of art.

These scores challenged traditional notions of musical structure and opened up new possibilities for sonic exploration.
