Fluxus

The Fluxus group I found was rather interesting. Creating art the way they did showed the uniqueness in the art. It was interesting to see how art was created through testing an individual’s visual perception not on the outside but rather on the side with the optical nerves. Also, I found interesting that Fluxus artists create the work but the audience completes the work as mentioned by Higgins. It seems as though the Fluxus group does a lot of art that pertains to how it is perceived through the visual sense, but as Higgins also points out, “Fluxux works are made to be seen, as in Fluxpost (Smiles), they are often also intended to be felt” (31). This form of art definitely proves itself to be anti-art and jabs at the ideas and seriousness that modern art portrayed itself to be.
