Research Institute, Los Angeles The Fluxus artistic philosophy
can be expressed as a synthesis of four key factors that define
the majority of Fluxus work: - Fluxus is an attitude. It is not
a movement or a style. - Fluxus is intermedia. Fluxus creators
like to see what happens when different media intersect. They
use found and everyday objects, sounds, images, and texts to
create new combinations of objects, sounds, images, and texts. -
Fluxus works are simple. The art is small, the texts are short,
and the performances are brief. - Fluxus is fun. Humour has
always been an important element in Fluxus.
