CONCEPT:
Fluxus was an international, interdisciplinary community of artists during the 1960s and ’70s who engaged in experimental art performances, which emphasized the artistic process over the finished product. Fluxus 1960s–’80s is an exhibition catalog based on a fictional exhibition focusing on Fluxus artworks during this period. There are four chapters: Essays, Interviews, Texts, and Catalog (artwork collection). The whole book retains a straightforward and dynamic tone that echoes with the experimental and free spirit of Fluxus. Consistent with this rough and bold tone spirit, it is printed on newsprint and bound using a saddle stitch.
