International Fluxhibition #3: Thinking Inside of the Box (Fluxus Boxes, Cases, Kits and Containers)

With more than 100 works of art and over 15 nations represented, this exhibit unites the global community of contemporary artists. Of special note: Yoko Ono, an original member of the 1960's Fluxus art movement, has graciously contributed one of her recent pieces to be included in the exhibition.

This may well be one of the most significant exhibits of its kind - certainly of the early 21st century. There are a small handful of established international exhibitions designed to showcase the current state of the arts, such as the Venice Biennale; however, what's amazing about Fluxhibition is that it's not organized by a major institution (along with the inherent politics), but rather, it is curated by artist Cecil Touchon and a group of artists who truly are in life's trenches - where the "real world" interfaces with artistic expression. Although it revolves around Fluxus concepts, the exhibit is more of a summation, clarification and redefinition of all the previous artistic ideologies regarding tangible objects as pertinent to subjective content: Duchamp, Cornell, Rauschenberg and beyond. This is a global art statement by a group of prevailing "cultural canaries." From personal idiosyncrasies to social commentaries, Fluxhibition #3: Thinking Inside of the Box, is a treasury full of artifacts from the grand adventure of artistic exploration.
