En mi obra trato de jugar con la poesía, las tintas gráficas y la línea pura. Es una indagación en solitario. En realidad la obra no es sino la conclusión unitaria de un ciclo de experiencias, cada una de las cuales tiene, como acto de existencia un sentido completo. Una obra de arte es, simultáneamente, una manifestación personal, social, histórica e ideológica. El arte es una expresión multideterminada.

FLUXUS MANIFESTO FOR THE 21st
CENTURY
(Originally drafted by Allan Revich on March 21, 2011 – collaboratively modified to present state – February 14, 2012 )
This is what Fluxus is today. It is pretty much the same as what Fluxus was, but the old actors have been replaced by new ones. And behind our generation of Fluxus artists there is already a new generation ready to replace us. We welcome them.
FLUXUS TODAY:
Fluxus today is built on the solid foundations of Fluxus yesterday. Many of the artists may be new, but the work they are making is as much a part of Fluxus tradition as the work that came before.
Here is what Ken Friedman wrote. It was first published in 1989 by the Emily Harvey Gallery as "Fluxus and Company".
"...Emmett Williams once wrote, "Fluxus is what Fluxus does - but no one knows whodunit." This concise description makes two radical statements. The statement that no one knows "who done" Fluxus rejects the idea of Fluxus as a specific group of people. It identifies Fluxus with a frame of action and defines Fluxus as a cumulative, aggregate of Fluxus activities over the past forty years or so. While Emmett is famous for playful conundrums, he may not agree with this reading of his text. Dick Higgins did.
Dick explicitly rejected a notion that limited Fluxus to a specific group of people who came together at a specific time and place. Dick wrote, "Fluxus is not a moment in history, or an art movement. Fluxus is a way of doing things, a tradition, and a way of life and death."
For Dick, for George Maciunas, and for me, Fluxus is more valuable as an idea and a potential for social change than as a specific group of people or a collection of objects."
We, the Fluxus artists of the 21st century have taken these words to heart. We are Fluxus and we are making Fluxus work. Friedman, building on previous work by Dick Higgins, described Fluxus as a "laboratory characterized by twelve ideas".
1. globalism,
2. the unity of art and life,
3. intermedia,
4. experimentalism,
5. chance,
6. playfulness,
7. simplicity,
8. implicativeness,
9. exemplativism,
10. specificity,
11. presence in time, and
12. musicality
We live and work under the umbrella of these twelve ideas.
FOUR FLUXUS PRINCIPLES
Ideas from Ken Friedman, Owen Smith, George Maciunas, and Dick Higgins along with direct observation of Fluxus work past and present, can be synthesized to create an even more concise set of Four Fluxus Principles:
1. Fluxus is an attitude. It is not a movement or a style.
2. Fluxus is intermedia. Fluxus creators like to see what happens when different media intersect. They use found and everyday objects, sounds, images, and texts to create new combinations of objects, sounds, images, and texts.
3. Fluxus works are simple. The art is small, the texts are short, and the performances are brief.
4. Fluxus should be fun. Humor has always been an important element in Fluxus.
As with Friedman's 12 ideas, these four principles are flexible guidelines, not commandments carved in stone. They are meant to help people understand and work with Fluxus. Not to confine them or restrain their creativity.
We, the Fluxus artists of the 21st century, know that we owe George Maciunas, Dick Higgins, Ken Friedman, and all of the original Fluxus artists a debt of gratitude for building the ship that we are now sailing on. Anyone, anywhere, is welcome aboard. Just remember that the ship has already started to sail.
