“PURGE the world of dead art, imitation, artificial art…Promote living art, anti-art, promote NON ART REALITY to be grasped by all peoples,” writes George Maciunas in his Fluxus manifesto of 1963. In collaboration with Natilee Harren, Assistant Professor of Contemporary Art History at the University of Houston, Loop38 performs works in graphic notation by John Cage, Earle Brown, Morton Feldman, Dick Higgins, and George Maciunas to celebrate the forthcoming release of Harren’s book Fluxus Forms: Scores, Multiples, and the Eternal Network by University of Chicago Press. The performance accompanies the first of a three-part series of lectures which explore the history and legacy of Fluxus art & performance.
