The New York Fluxus group

The New York Fluxus group was a collective of avant-garde artists active mainly in the 1960s and early 1970s, associated with Fluxus—a movement blending performance, visual art, and experimental practices. They emphasized the process of creation over traditional aesthetics, often incorporating everyday objects, humorous elements, and audience participation. The group aimed to challenge conventional art norms, promoting spontaneity, interactivity, and the idea that art could be found in simple, everyday acts. Their work blurred the boundaries between art and life, encouraging a more open, playful approach to artistic expression.
