The other Fluxus person I have met is Nam June Paik--i audited a class he taught at MIT in the late 1970's. Alison Knowles' published notebooks are a great inspiration to me.

RE: FLUXLIST: Fluxus: Dead or Alive
i had a lunch of thread and spools with fluxus yesterday and fluxus seemed very alive and well to me! ate with excellent appetite and great gusto and talked aplenty--following many a thread and unspooling many a plan-- From: Allan Revich [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: FLUXLIST@scribble.com To: FLUXLIST@scribble.com Subject: FLUXLIST: Fluxus: Dead or Alive Date: Sun, 18 Jun 2006 11:50:50 -0400 Is Fluxus dead or alive? In a nutshell, it seems to me that Fluxus is dead if it is defined as a movement in art and culture associated with the group of artists who came together in the early 1960s with George Maciunas at its centre. However, if Fluxus is defined as an approach to art and culture centred around the idea of Intermedia, then it remains very much alive. I am strongly inclined towards the latter view. This of course is a question which may never be finally settled, especially given the tautological nature of the Fluxus is dead argument... I.E. If Fluxus is defined as a movement that existed between 1962 and 1978 or between any other relatively static dates than the definition itself precludes the possibility that Fluxus is still alive. The group known as Secret Fluxus that was active on this list a while back epitomized this dialogue since they were alive and active Fluxus artists who seemed to believe that their performances were re-enactments rather the new performances of Fluxus events.

FLUXLIST: The Cretan Paradox
In the ancient world, Cretans were legendary famous liars. In the modern world: A writer decided to write a book about modern day Crete. He decided the best way to do this would be to go there and talk to as many Cretans as he could to better lean all about them, starting with the first one he met. Getting off the boat, he was met by a porter offering to carry his bags. Ah! My first Cretan! thought the the writer--now I can begin with my book. He told the Cretan about his project and how he intended to speak with as many Cretans as possible beginning with him, the porter. That's wonderful! said the Cretan. And I am very glad you are talking with me first, because I must warn you--all Cretans are liars. Later, the writer began to reflect on what the man had told him. If he were telling the truth--and all Cretans were liars--and he was a Cretan--therefore he must be lying. But if he was lying that they were all liars, they must all be ones who told the truth. But then--if they told the truth--meaning he did--then--then they would all be liars and--- The writer could see that this was going to be a difficult book to write . . . From: Allan Revich [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: FLUXLIST@scribble.com To: FLUXLIST@scribble.com Subject: RE: FLUXLIST: Nothing maxim/Superstions maxim Date: Thu, 4 May 2006 11:57:50 -0400 That's really something! Russell's Paradox Russell's paradox represents either of two interrelated logical antinomies. The most commonly discussed form is a contradiction arising in the logic of sets or classes. Some classes (or sets) seem to be members of themselves, while some do not. The class of all classes is itself a class, and so it seems to be in itself. The null or empty class, however, must not be a member of itself. However, suppose that we can form a class of all classes (or sets) that, like the null class, are not included in themselves. The paradox arises from asking the question of whether this class is in itself. It is if and only if it is not. The other form is a contradiction involving properties. Some properties seem to apply to themselves, while others do not. The property of being a property is itself a property, while the propery of being a cat is not itself a cat. Consider the property that something has just in case it is a property (like that of being a cat) that does not apply to itself. Does this property apply to itself? Once again, from either assumption, the opposite follows. The paradox was named after Bertrand Russell, who discovered it in 1901. http://www.iep.utm.edu/p/par-russ.htm -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David-Baptiste Chirot Sent: Thursday, May 04, 2006 10:37 AM To: FLUXLIST@scribble.com Subject: RE: FLUXLIST: Nothing maxim/Superstions maxim Well--i guess that means they believe in SOMEthing!

FLUXLIST: Baudhuin Simon
This just arrived from the Belgian Mail Artist Guido Vermeulen. Many of you am sure have known of Baudhuin and his wonderful and inventive work--PIG DADA-- Dear Friends, On March 9 Baudhuin Simon, the Belgian mail artist who introduced me to the mail art network in 1993, committed suicide. The news reached me Saturday. I composed a message on what happened and posted it on a few Yahoo mail art groups. I would like to share this with all of you: To all mail artists On the suicidal death of Baudhuin Simon: Yes, the news is true. It reached me by a message from his former girl friend on Saturday while I was hosting the arrival of a poet in my flat (Virginia Cubillan, someone I met thru Mark Sonnenfeld, she lives in the USA but is from Venezuela) The contrast between the excitement of meeting someone new thru' the network and the sad announcement of the suicide of Baudhuin (who introduced me to mail art in 1993) was enormous. I took Virginia to see a Puccini opera on Saturday (Le Villi) That opera is on the ghosts of dead people!!! Sunday we traveled to Ostend to attend a concert with the music of Preisner (who wrote the splendid scores for all of Kieslowski's movies) The concert started with a selection of parts of his requiem for a dead friend.

FLUXLIST: FW: ETHER: now available
This might be of much interest to many fluxers and spiders-- _Ether: The Nothing That Connects Everything_ is now available. visit www.joemilutis.com for more info and link to buy ETHER~~ Advance praise for _Ether: The Nothing That Connects Everything_: ³Marvelously written, witty and inspiring. A significant and needed contribution to our understanding of the nebulous intersection of technology, subjectivity, spirituality, avant-garde art, and premodern cosmologies² --Erik Davis, author of Techgnosis ³A Sheer delight. It brings together literature, philosophy, history of science, occult studies, music, audio art, film, American studies and poststructuralism with frightening fluidity and sure-footedness. I can think of a number of projects that attempt this far-reaching transdisciplinarity, but none that does it quite this well.² --John Corbett, School of the Art Institute of Chicago ³Milutis is a skilled ringmaster of difficult ideas that might otherwise bite.² --Gregory Whitehead, radio artist www.joemilutis.com Every culture has its own word for this nothing. Synonymous with the idea of absolute space and time, the ether is an ancient concept that has continually determined our definition of environment, our relations to each other, and our ideas about technology. It has also instigated our desire to know something irrepressibly beyond all that. In Ether, the histories of mysticism and the unseen merge with discussions of the technology and science of electromagnetism. Joe Milutis explores how the ideas of Anton Mesmer and Isaac Newton have manifested themselves as the inspiration for occult theories and artistic practices from Edgar Allan Poe¹s works to today. In doing so, he demonstrates that fading in and out of scientific favor has not prevented the ether, a uniquely immaterial concept, from being a powerful force for material progress. Milutis deftly weaves the origins of electrical science with alchemical lore, nineteenth-century industrialism with yogic science, and network space with dreams of the absolute. Linking the ether to phenomena such as radio noise, space travel, avant-garde film, and the rise of the Internet, he lends it an almost physical presence and currency. From Federico Fellini to Gilles Deleuze, Japanese anime to Italian Futurism, Jean Cocteau to NASA, Shirley Temple to Wilhelm Reich, Ether traverses geographical boundaries, spiritual planes, and the divide between popular and high culture. Navigating more than three hundred years of the ether¹s cultural and artistic history, Milutis reveals its continuous reinvention and tangible impact without ever losing sight of its ephemeral, elusive nature. The true meaning of ether, Milutis suggests, may be that it can never be fully grasped. www.joemilutis.com _ On the road to retirement?

Working from Louis Zukofsky's idea that poetry can be evaluated within the range of lower level speech, upper level music, we'll explore ways to locate the musicality of different kinds of poetry and we'll ask what makes a poem tick. During the workshop we'll read poems that adhere to metrical forms and we'll also look at Open Verse poems. In addition we'll write some poems of our own. Lisa Jarnot is the author of three full-length collections of poetry including Black Dog Songs (Flood Editions, Chicago). She is currently completing a biography of the San Francisco poet Robert Duncan which will be published by University of California Press in 2006. She lives in New York City and teaches in the Creative Writing Program at Brooklyn College. To register call (414) 263-5001. __ Understanding Revealing Characters in Fiction with Martha Bergland 2pm-5pm $25/20 members Compelling fiction contains characters that draw empathy from the reader. In this workshop we will study and learn different techniques that help us know the characters in our fiction, (and therefore their conflicts). Through this deeper level of understanding we can build characters that intrigue and captivate our readers. Martha Bergland's first novel, A Farm Under A Lake, was published 1989 by Graywolf Press, and by Vintage Books, Bloomsbury in England, Bonniers in Sweden, and Krueger in Germany. Graywolf published her novel Idle Curiosity in 1997. Bergland's essays, poems, and short stories are widely published in literary journals. Her short story, An Embarrassment of Ordinary Riches, was awarded a Pushcart Prize and was included in Pushcart's anthology, Love Stories for the Rest of Us. Bergland taught English for many years at Milwaukee Area Technical College. To register call (414) 263-5001.

Years and years of fight against the transnationals and the official culture in order to be recompensed for his own enemies...! What deception...! It has sufficed that Padín refused the Prize but he voted for the new government and he wants to support its politic because it is the first time that Uruguay has a government from left.

FLUXLIST: FW: Films of the Situationist International starts Monday/Stalin
Hello Al meant to post this yesterday-- never thought i would have a chance to see them-- as if anyone has, i wd like to correspond regarding them-- the films last night were shown with a question/comment period between them--so that debord canhave the final word as Keith Sanborn (see blow) said-- as the second film is a rebuttal of critics of the first --SOCIETY OF THE SPECTACLE it is very interseting to see the films as in a sense the spectacle of guy debord-- he has an immense fascination with stalin which is interesting as the films become in a way the intellectual autobiography of the development of a cult of personality-- i.e. m. debord's i am looking fwd to the others in relation with visual poetry-- i lived in france 1967-8, 69, 70 wondered if any of you did also? Education is a weapon whose effects depend on who holds it in his hands and at whom it is aimed. Josef STALIN quote found in Hallmarks' Great Quotes of the 20th Century 2 if anyone is interested or has seen these--send a bc letter to david-bc From: Union Cinema-Theatre [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Union Cinema-Theatre [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Films of the Situationist International starts Monday The UWM Union Theatre presents a unique retrospective of the rebellious and highly influential filmmaking of the Situationist International! The event begins Monday, October 17th and runs until Thursday, October 20th. Here is the complete list of programming with descriptions for your consideration. ALL SCREENINGS ARE FREE TO ALL! Writer, filmmaker, translator and SI archeologist Keith Sanborn will be in attendance on Monday, October 17 to introduce the evening and provide a talk-back session after the film. Monday, October 17 - 7pm The Society of the Spectacle (La société du spectacle) Situationist founder Guy Debord's own 1973 adaptation of his 1967 book by the same name. Enormously influential in France, the film is an astonishingly sophisticated and coherent response to the experience of May 1968. A filmic essay, based primarily on detourned, that is pre-existing and recontextualized, images, including: sequences from Hollywood features, East Block features, news footage, documentary footage, tv commercials, pornography, and a vast number of stills, some of which seem to have been shot explicitly for this film. The film also makes use of intertitles which include both acknowledged and unacknowledged detourned quotations from Dante, Hegel, Marx, Meister Eckhart, Shakespeare, Cieszkowski, von Clausewitz, Pouget and others. While this film is a considerable achievement in the domain of cinema, it is not just a film; it is a conscious attempt to change the world. English subtitles by Keith Sanborn. (Guy Debord, France, 90 min., French w/ Eng. St., Film on Video, 1973) preceded by: Refutation Of All Judgments Which Have Up To Now Been Brought Whether In Praise Or Hostile To The Film Called Society Of The Spectacle Debord's response in film to the written critiques which greeted his film The Society of the Spectacle. (Guy Debord, France, 20 min., French w/ Eng. St., Film on Video, 1975) Tuesday, October 18 - 7pm Venom Eternity (Traité de bauve et d'éternité) Poet and founder of the Lettrist Movement, Jean Isidore Isou wrote, scored, photographed, directed and starred in Venom Eternity - a self-described revolt against cinema. In the film Isou attempts to discuss what was wrong with the cinema and goes on to show examples of what he thinks it should consist of. Featuring an appearance by Jean Cocteau, who, musing as to the film's future, would ask: Is VENOM a springboard or is it a void? In fifty years we'll know the answer...The day will come, perhaps, when Isou's style will be in fashion. Causing riots and stomp-outs during its initial screenings in France and the US, the film went on to influence a generation of avant-garde filmmakers including, most profoundly, a young Stan Brakhage - declaring Venom Eternity as a portal though which every film artist is going to have to pass. (Jean Isidore Isou, France, 90 min., French w/ Eng. St., 16mm BW, 1951) Wednesday, October 19 - 7pm Can Dialectics Break Bricks? (La Dialectique peut-elle casser des briques?) Annouced as the first entirely détourned film in the history of cinema, Viénet and Cohen transformed a typical kung-fu film into an examination of class and intellectual sectarianism. According to Viénet: The cinema, which is the newest and most serviceable means of expression of our era has been marking time for 3/4 of a century. By way of review, let us say that it has in fact become the '7th art' dear to cinephiles, ciné-clubs, PTA's. Let us state that for our purposes the cycle has come to an end Let us appropriate the stammerings of this new writing; let us appropriate above all its most achieved examples, the most modern ones, those which have escaped artistic ideology even

The postcards will be available in mid-August.RANTS AND RAVESRaves for Nave Gallery in Somerville, MA. Their Sound Vision/ Vision Sound 111 International Exhibition and Festival of Verbo -Visual Artwork and Performances were wonderful. I attended the performance on July 15th and was struck by the artwork, the intimate space, and the cozy atmosphere of the gallery. I went to see John M. Bennett and Be Blank Consort perform. I also wanted to meet John because for years I've been reading his work which I love. Be Blank Consort performed many pieces which took on language in a new way. Many of the poems were spoken simultaneously with performers speaking different text. It gave a chorus effect. I found myself listening to some text but then my attention would go to another person and what they were saying. The rhythm and structure of the text allowed the listener to make their own meaning at times. The pieces that really stood out for me were Lungs, P piece, and a brilliant performance and delivery of The Peel Peeled. This last piece was !performed in three different languages at the same time. The timing and delivery of all the work was well crafted. Be Blank Consort knew exactly what they were doing. Other members of the group that performed were K.S.Ernst, Scott Helmes and Michael Basinski. All of the performers were wonderful. I just loved it! I wondered if they put any of their pieces together like John Cage used to do. That is throwing up notes in the air and putting them together in random order. Years ago, I saw a special on PBS on John Cage. Richard Kostelanetz, a language poet, spoke about him on this special. I considered everyone that night performing to be language poets. The text was not only important on the delivery but also how it looked on the page. I cannot rave enough about this group.BuffFluxus was the next to perform, the performance group was established in 1956 when they first performed on the Ed Sullivan show. They were great. They also experimented with language, text, and delivery. They consisted of members Michael Basinski, Doug Manson, Matt Chambers and Karen Yocobucci. They did a Poem Improvise, in which a box of pants/shorts were emptied out onto the floor. They called them John M. Bennett's pants. They put them on and audience members could do the same if they wanted to. Another piece they did I'll call Oh Shit. In this, they said the phrase in as many different ways that one possibly could. It was hysterical. I laughed quite a bit over this one. I am not sure if that was the actual name so forgive if it's wrong. Also the audience took part in the beginning of one piece where they were asked questions. These performers were just wonderful. Their delivery and pieces performed added another layer of text performance art into the night.The last group consisted of three performers, Chris Fritton, William R. Howe and Lisa Phillips. It started with a huge blank piece of white paper on the floor. On the sides of the paper were ink pads. The performers stepped on them and walked on the paper. Different letters came out onto the paper. While doing this they made sounds. The whole experience was fascinating to watch. Visually watching printing and listening to sounds were again showing the audience members the different way text and printing can affect us. It was like watching an installation piece coming to life. Also the ink on paper came off their shoes with different texture which added depth to the piece. All this layering by all performers gives us a new insight to how important language and text is. Why not take it to new levels? Everyone here definitely did that.William R. Howe who is Curator of the gallery put together a wonderful and I do mean a wonderful exhibition and performances. It took such work on his part. What a show to put together. His Assistant Curators, Chris Fritton and Lisa Phillips are to be commended for their huge part also. It was a great night of visual, sound, text/language and performance art put together.Raves to Nico Vassilakis and the screening of his shorts. Visually beautiful to watch. He is a brilliant writer so this was really neat for me to see.The exhibition at the Nave Gallery is
FLUXLIST: FW: Milwaukee Art Museum: The New York Times Review of the Arts and Crafts Movement
The New York Times July 26, 2005 http://www.nytimes.com/2005/07/26/arts/design/26smit.html How Decorative Arts Evolved and Became a Social Movement By ROBERTA SMITH MILWAUKEE - The Arts and Crafts movement, which began boiling up in the indefatigable William Morris in England in the 1860's, was one of those great switching stations of thought built during the Victorian Era and commensurate in its way with Darwinism, Marxism and photography. As suggested by "The Arts and Crafts Movement in Europe and America," an epic exhibition at the Milwaukee Art Museum, the switching station's inbound tracks included medieval art and the English Gothic Revival, country furniture, Sir Walter Scott's romances and the writings of Carlyle, plus Ruskin and Emerson and Morris's fury at the Industrial Revolution's harmful effects on design, craftsmanship, the environment and working conditions. "Shoddy is king," Morris famously said. The feeling ignited his do-it-yourself instincts as a designer, craftsman, social reformer and businessman, amply supported by, in all senses, the confidence and cash flow of a well-educated Englishman of means. The outbound tracks lead to, or pass close by, most of modern design as we know it, in terms of movements, principles, dissenting geniuses and home furnishing stores. In other words: Art Nouveau, Wiener Werkstätte, Art Deco, de Stijl and Bauhaus; as well as "truth to materials," "unity in design," design as social reform and the private (read middle-class) house. Also Frank Lloyd Wright, Ray and Charles Eames, George Nelson, Donald Judd and the anticapitalist, back-to-nature ethos of the counterculture, as well as Design Research, the Door Store, Ikea, Pottery Barn, West Elm and Design Within Reach. Arguing for handcraft, social responsibility and the equality between the fine and applied arts, Morris's back-to-the-workshop movement changed the way design was seen in the West while reflecting larger changes like the rise of the middle class, nationalism, industrialization and individual rights. It proposed a holistic, in many ways utopian vision; it declared the ultimate obligation of design to be quality of life, and that worker and consumer alike were entitled to its benefits. Much of the movement's scope, vitality and its crusading, often pious optimism is evident in the Milwaukee show, which originated in December at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, where it was organized by Wendy Kaplan, curator of the decorative arts department. Concentrating on the heyday of the Arts and Crafts from 1890 to 1910, it is the first major show to parse the movement's impact on an international scale. At Milwaukee, it flows through 14 galleries whose relatively low ceilings create a fittingly domestic atmosphere. It encompasses more than 300 objects by scores of designers, craftsmen and architects whose names are variously famous, unknown and unexpected. Furniture dominates; veritable mini-exhibitions mull over chairness and buffetness or present self-contained worlds like the entire dining room, from carpet to stemware, designed by Peter Behrens, the movement's German exemplar. A bulky humbleness prevails, along with glowing wood tones, restrained techniques and understated touches of exotic materials like mother-of-pearl or inlaid silver. Josef Hoffmann's tea service in hammered silver is softly luminous, not shiny. One of the show's loudest moments is George Washington Maher's glass mosaic fire surround in hot pink and turquoise; one of its least familiar is Gustav Serrurier-Bovy's almost spectral grandfather clock, which pushes Arts and Crafts toward Art Nouveau. When natural materials aren't in the foreground, plant and flower forms are, in jewelry, ceramics, textiles, stained glass and graphic design, on bookbindings. The movement's best-known motifs are the widely imitated plant patterns derived from Gothic and Persian precedents to be found in Morris Co. tapestries (for which Morris resurrected the vegetable dye process) and wall paper (printed by hand). The show devotes generous space to the movement's English origins and its enthusiastic reception in America, where Wright (its first proselytizer), Gustav Stickley and the brothers Henry Mather Greene and Charles Sumner Greene devised some of its most complete and exalted expressions. Special attention is paid the work of the lavishly initialed second English generation - C. R. Ashbee, C. F. A. Voysey and M. H. Baillie Scott - who all helped to spread the Arts and Crafts gospel, often by designing houses that were then furnished by Morris Co. But the exhibition is most exciting when covering the diverse efforts of true believers, momentary acolytes and fellow travelers from Scotland, Austria, Germany, Belgium, Hungary, Sweden, Norway, Finland and Denmark.

FLUXLIST: FW: Re: Xul Solar
Hello Everyone-- Harry Burrus sent this to me thought to pass on to you--as recently xul solar mentioned on list and here great opportunity to find these closer to hand-- --think i'll go to see these in the old home of Duke Records (Bobby Blue Bland etc) and international artists label! (13th floor elevators, bubble puppy , red krayola even lightnin hopkins)Many thanks, Harry! david-bcI checked his work -- notice the exhibit is coming to Houston!First show for him is USA.The show in BA:The exhibition, entitled "Xul Solar: Visions and Revelations," opened here in June and will continue through Aug. 15. In September, it will travel to São Paulo and, early next year, to the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston for what will be Xul Solar's first individual show ever in the United States."When it comes to Latin American art of the 1920's and 1930's, people tend to think of the Mexican muralists and Frida Kahlo and stop there," said Mari Carmen Ramírez, the Houston museum's chief curator of Latin American art. Xul Solar, by contrast, "is not the kind of artist who is easily absorbed into the fine-arts milieu of any country," because he did not conform to a single medium or pattern of _expression_.Recognizing Xul Solar's growing stature, the Houston museum recently acquired three of his works. The most celebrated is "Jefa," a 1923 watercolor of a woman's head, adorned with cat's whiskers and surrounded by arcane symbols, that critics regard as the culmination of an especially fecund period of the artist's 50-year career.Xul Solar's art has usually been viewed as part of the Latin American avant-garde of the early 20th century. But the curator of the Malba show, Patricia Artundo, has chosen to give equal weight to the mystical aspects of his work: the first painting visitors see on entering the gallery is a painting Xul Solar did of his own horoscope in 1953."His was a spiritual search, but not in a straight line," Dr. Artundo said. "Occult sciences, the Kabbalah, astrology, the I Ching, the tarot, Aleister Crowley, they all flow together along with his vanguard tendencies and play a role in his desire to unify Latin America on a spiritual basis."Critics and art historians often compare Xul Solar to Paul Klee, whose work he saw and admired during the dozen years he spent in Europe before returning in 1924 to Argentina. Like Klee, Xul Solar often included letters, numbers and other symbols in his paintings. The color schemes the two artists adopted was often similar too, as was the underlying spirit of their work and their interest in primitive and archaic art."There is a lot of kinship in their formal visual language, their refusal to paint in a traditional way and in the almost childlike quality of Xul Solar's work, the way he uses schematic figures like the sun, the moon and snakes," Dr. Ramírez said. "He absorbed German Expressionism and Paul Klee as his starting point, though what he did with them later was very different."In addition to the paintings, the exhibition contains tarot cards painted by Xul Solar, a pair of masks and several objects he invented. These "heirlooms from another cosmos," as he once referred to them, include a harmonium with three rows of colored keys and a board game he called "pan-chess," with 13-by-13 squares (instead of 8-by-8).At a panel discussion here in early July, Jorge Schwartz, a critic and professor of Spanish-American literature at the University of São Paulo, talked of Xul Solar's "desire to make corrections," citing pan-chess and the artist's plan to modify soccer to use up to five balls simultaneously. But he also tried to improve his native tongue by inventing two new languages, Neo-Criollo and Pan-Lengua, that he incorporated into his work.One of his many notebooks, written in Neo-Criollo, is on display as part of the exhibition. Many of the paintings were also given titles in Neo-Criollo, or Neo-Creole, a mixture of Spanish and Portuguese with a smattering of English.The artist's playfulness with language extended even to the pseudonym he adopted while living in Europe, at the suggestion of an Argentine friend and fellow painter who thought his real name too ponderous for an artist. Though based on his birth name, Xul Solar can be interpreted to mean "solar light" or "light from the south."Many of the works in the exhibition are on loan from the Xul Solar Museum here, which opened in 1993, one floor below the apartment where the artist lived for most of his adult life. The museum contains the largest collection of his paintings, along with much of his correspondence and manuscripts."Xul used to say that he painted reality, the reality of his own visions," said Jorge Natalio Povarche, director of the Xul Solar Foundation, which runs the museum, and the artist's dealer during the later stages of his career. "Other painters were easier to read, and that is why so much of his work ended up here. There was no market for him because they didn't understand him."Borges,

Re: FLUXLIST: FLUXUS AND THE PLASTIC ARTS
Cecil i don't pretend to know more than a little of Fluxus in the plastic arts--but the pieces i know ofmany struck me as being ephemeral--that is, they are in keeping with this: "the world as we see it is passing" (st paul)-- to me often the works were to be in tune with this, make the viewer aware of the ephemerality of things and seeing things in the passing of time-- i think this relates in many ways to the Eastern infuences in Fluxus-- the piece one is seeeing is making evident that this seeing is passing, is not fixed--and then piece itself is not fixed-- the first definition of "modernism" is from Baudelaire--he wrote that is the conjunction of the ephemeral and the eternal--the eternal with in the ephemeral-- to me the Fluxus pieces are examing this in a vareity of different ways--these are just some thoughts from the little i have seen and know of the Fluxus pieces in plastic arts--suggestions--to perhaps consider (?)--From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]Reply-To: FLUXLIST@scribble.comTo: FLUXLIST@scribble.comSubject: Re: FLUXLIST: FLUXUS AND THE PLASTIC ARTSDate: Sat, 14 May 2005 14:23:35 EDTIn a message dated 5/12/05 7:54:11 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I would like to start a discussion on how to identify a visual art work as a specificly fluxus art work o d9j0[9wquyr[0ohf3of3e98uf2hohe87f1329ghffbi;queuncp9fhfh-end of discussion-byMadawg Download your favorite songs at MSN Music - Over 1 million songs for just 99¢ each

FLUXLIST: Jaci Kerouac enters Baseball Hall of Fame
Two days ago a first in literay hiitory-- a bobble head doll of Jack Kerouac was honored by beingplaced in the Basebaseball Hall of Fame. The doll was created for Kerouac's hometown of Lowell, MA's minor leage team, the Spinners. The doll was handed out to 1, 00 fans last August, and demand was such that 500 more were created and sale of them raised $10, 000 for the Jack Kerouc Scholarships Program. Kerouac--the first literary figure to enter Hall of Fame- as many of you who have read his books know--Jack K creaed his own baseball game using playing cards--created complete teams in leagues and with statistics on each player--wrote accounts included in books such as DESOLATION ANGELS and others of the palyers and the games. The players described in detail, given viviid individuality and backgrounds on histories of the teams. Jack K had invented in childhood and played throughout his life--ture dedicatioon and devotion--and part of discipline and action in his writing-- Hall of Fame spokesperson Jeff Idelson: "Having the Kerouac bobblehead in our collection is important, given he's an American icon who had a deep passion for the game, which he shared in his writiing".

FLUXLIST: FW: To Networking, a la red...2/STAMP TERRORIS M2
From: "Clemente Padin" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Friends, fortunately the things have not gone farther, in the one which concerns to the exhibition " Axis of Evil: the secret history of sin" according to an email of its curator, the artist Miguel Hernández de Luna, the exhibition "is no secret any more, as a headline had previously mentioned. No ones going to jail and none of the work has been confiscated.". The exhibition has the support of the authorities of the Columbia College and had received a massive diffusion in the mediums. In his words: "The show is doing what it is supposed to do: question our times." However, we know that the first that the anti-democratic governments make is attack the liberty of _expression_ repressing the free course of the ideas in the mediums of communication and, above all, in the art and the culture. For it, I think, we have to be attentive to everything the one which occurs in this sense. Otherwise, we could lose our supreme law: liberty. Fraternally, - Amigos, al parecer las cosas no han pasado a mayores, en lo que concierne a la exhibición "El Eje del Mal:la Historia Confidencial del Pecado". De acuerdo a correo electrónico de su curador, el artista Miguel Hernández de Luna, la muestra "ya ha dejado de confidencial como lo afirmara un titular de prensa previamente difundido. Ninguna persona fue encarcelado ni se ha confiscado ninguna obra". La muestra cuenta con el apoyo de las autoridades del Columbia College y ha recibido una difusión masiva en los medios.En sus palabras: "La exposición está haciendo lo que se supuso que haría: cuestionar nuestro tiempo". Sin embargo, todos sabemos que lo primero que hacen los gobiernos anti-democráticos es atacar la libertad de expresión reprimiendo el libre curso de las ideas en los medios de comunicación y, sobre todo, en el arte y la cultura. Por ello, creo, tenemos que estar atentos a todo lo que ocurra en este sentido. De lo contrario, podríamos perder nuestro bien preciado: la libertad. Fraternalmente, -- Stamp art show not so secret now - April 13, 2005 BY NATASHA KORECKI Federal Courts Reporter News that the Secret Service visited a Columbia College art exhibit caused a spike in gallery visitors Tuesday, drawing about 150 curious art seekers to the South Loop gallery. Exhibit curator Michael Hernandez de Luna called the public response overwhelming to "Axis of Evil, the Secret History of Sin," a collection of sharply political artwork on fake sheets of stamps. Two Secret Service agents visited the gallery Thursday just before its public opening, responding to a citizen complaint about some of the pieces. They followed with a phone call asking specifically about the artist who created "Patriot Act," a fake sheet of stamps picturing President Bush with a gun pointing at him. 'We ... respect artistic freedoms' The artist, Al Brandtner, was not returning phone calls. On Tuesday, the Glass Curtain Gallery at 1104 S. Wabash bustled with viewers all day, compared with the two dozen or so people who visited Monday before news of the government visit broke. U.S. Secret Service spokesman Jonathan Cherry said he doesn't know if the inquiry is complete but no artwork has been confiscated. "We certainly respect artistic freedoms, but the Secret Service also has the responsibility to look into exhibits or statements when necessary. In this instance we've done just that," Cherry said. "The Secret Service hasn't confiscated any artwork or questioned anyone against their wishes; we just need to ensure as best we can that this is nothing more than artwork with a political statement." Hernandez said the incident has generated a good discussion on the artwork and the political statements of the show. The exhibit features work from 47 artists who are not affiliated with Columbia. Artists' reaction? 'They love it' Hernandez said Columbia received some e-mails calling the exhibit unpatriotic or un-American. But most of the responses were positive, he said. Hernandez didn't expect Brandtner to make any public statements. He said a few artists shunned the media and government attention but nearly all the artists embraced it. "They love it. They knew what they were getting into," Hernandez said. A mother and son browsing the exhibit Tuesday had different perspectives. Lynne Sward, a Virginia artist, called the exhibit "provocative, clever and humorous." Her son, Scottt Sward -- a Chicago resident who collects stamps -- said some pieces "make my stomach upset." The stamp sheets mocking the pope, Catholicism and its issues with abuse by priests were over the top, he said. "I feel funny about it. I find some of it disturbing," he said. "I'm Catholic; you don't want to think about that all the time with our religion." http://www.suntimes.com/output/news/cst-nws-axis13.html

According these informations would be been about to stating explicitly another abuse against the competitors to the one which the curators call, the "Axis of Evil", although in this case, they only denounce the sexual abuse of Fathers of the Catholic Roman Church to the children, the murderous politics of Bush in Iraq, including the tortures to political prisoners in Abu Ghraid and Guantánamo.

The exhibit captured the attention of the Secret Service who sent agents to inspect the works last week according to gallery officials. (AP Photo/M. Spencer Green) CHICAGO -- The Secret Service sent agents to investigate a college art gallery exhibit of mock postage stamps, one depicting President Bush with a gun pointed at his head. The exhibit, called "Axis of Evil: The Secret History of Sin," opened last week at Columbia College in Chicago. It features stamps designed by 47 artists addressing issues such as the Roman Catholic sex abuse scandal, racism and the war in Iraq. None of the artists is tied to the college. Secret Service spokesman Tom Mazur would not say Tuesday whether the inquiry had been completed or whom the Secret Service had interviewed, but he said no artwork had been confiscated. The investigation began after authorities received a call from a Chicago resident. "We need to ensure, as best we can, that this is nothing more than artwork with a political statement," Mazur said. Two federal agents arrived at the exhibit's opening night Thursday, took photos of some of the works and asked for the artists' contact information, said CarolAnn Brown, the gallery's director. Brown said the agents were most interested in Chicago artist Al Brandtner's work titled "Patriot Act," which depicted a sheet of mock 37-cent red, white and blue stamps showing a revolver pointed at Bush's head. Brandtner did not return a call to his design studio Tuesday. The exhibit's curator, Michael Hernandez de Luna, said the inquiry "frightens" him. "It starts questioning all rights, not only my rights or the artists' rights in this room, but questioning the rights of any artist who creates - any writer, any visual artist, any performance artist. It seems like we're being watched," he said. Last spring, Secret Service agents in Washington state questioned a high school student about anti-war drawings he did for an art class, one of which depicted Bush's head on a stick. - Martes, 12 de abril de 2005 Exhibición de Arte parece que usó la imagen de Bush Por TARA BURGHART Escritora de ASSOCIATED PRESS Un obra de arte conteniendo artistamps (sellos apócrifos de Arte Correo) de 37 centavos con la imagen del presidente Bush con un revólver
