Celebrating Artcite Inc.'s 25th Anniversary
A Brief History of Fluxus Midwest @ Artcite
As part of our celebrating Artcite's anniversary, we decided to celebrate our own involvement with Artcite over the years. To do this, we took one of our recent performances, interactive displays, and objects--"A brief history of Fluxus Midwest"--and created an interactive wooden display that contains descriptions of 14 different Fluxus Midwest performances and installations at Arcite events from 1987 to 2000. This display was exhibited during the 25 years to life exhibition celebrating Artcite's 25th Anniversary. This display and the elements of this display are shown here below. |
