Description Of Opportunity:
| This course explores the Fluxus movement’s practice of creating and performing “scores” as a means of experimentation, reinterpretation, and artistic embodiment. Fluxus, an international art movement emerging in the 1960s and continuing today, embraces experimentation, community, and the dissolution of boundaries between art and everyday life. A core tenet of Fluxus is the creation of “scores”—text-based instructions for performances or artistic actions. This course introduces participants to the historical and contemporary relevance of Fluxus and its use of scores through the works of pioneering artists such as Alison Knowles, George Maciunas, and Yoko Ono, as well as contemporary practitioners like Erwin Wurm. Using seminal texts such as The Fluxus Performance Workbook (edited by Ken Friedman, Owen Smith, and Lauren Sawchyn) and Hans Ulrich Obrist’s do it, participants will engage in adapting and performing scores while critically reflecting on the process of re-performance, reinterpretation, and embodiment. Each week, participants will share creative exercises for group feedback and discussion. We will also explore how to adapt a score into a project proposal suitable for exhibitions, grants, or residencies. The course culminates in participants developing and performing their own original scores. for more information see https://ecc-performanceart.eu/fluxus May 5-26, Mondays 6-8PM CET |
