Schalten Sie Ihren Fernseher ab - 40 Jahre FLUXUS
A Japanese woman floats as the Holy Ghost through a church aisle - her dress consists of thousands of paper cubes. A man from New York has just bought up his friend’s DNA. In Nice a 70 year-old man lies half-naked in a shop window. The crowd gathered in front of the window is all part of the concept.
All three are artists belonging to a movement that has revolutionised the view of the world since the end of the 50’s. In 1962 a concert piano was taken to pieces in front of an audience in the museum of Wiesbaden. This breaking of a taboo was the public milestone of a new art form: Fluxus. A movement representing a life form bringing art and life together.
A film about an international generation of artists, who, even at a ripe age, express their opinions with humour and clarity in a playful and anarchic way.
