[RERUN] What is fluxus?

There are artistic movements which we’ve all heard of at least once, whether it be at school, in a museum or watching a cultural show on TV. But at the same time, it can be difficult to define them, and that’s why we’re here to help. Today we’re going to shed light on a 1960s anti-art movement known as fluxus. French-American cubist painter Marcel Duchamp invented the term anti-art in the early 20th century, to bring together various concepts that rejected the very idea of art itself.
