Do you mean "liberate" or "integrate"? I was under the impression that "art" was 
seperated from "life" and Fluxus activities tried to bring them together, or abolish 
the distinction, or at least make art "without being raised on a pedestal; it is 
simple, concrete, and everyone is able to produce it" (Gunter Berghaus).
