Fluxus means change: Jean Brown's avant-garde archive

Uittreksel

"Throughout the 1960s, Jean and Leonard Brown assembled an extensive collection of Dada and surrealist publications and editions, including influential works by Marcel Duchamp. After Leonard's death in 1970, Jean reinvented herself and her collection, collaborating with Fluxus impresario George Maciunas to acquire Fluxus works and contemporary genres such as artists' books, multiples, and mail art. Drawing on the Jean Brown Archive at the Getty Research Institute, Fluxus Means Change looks at the innovative art she collected, the artists she befriended, and the many ways they challenged the art world establishment and upended artistic traditions"-- On back of cover.
