While continuing the introduction from movement to fluxus, I
am then brought to a familiar name, that being Marcel Duchamp. I remember
Duchamp as an artist that was known for his work in the dada sub-movement
during the postmodernism era. One of his most famous works in that era was a
urinal piece titled Fountain, which
became a controversial piece as it was often rejected by the committee,
regardless that it had every right to be displayed as he paid the fee to do so.
But this time we see more of his work revolving around
contemporary art, such as the Optical
disc in 1925, and The Large Glass
(the Bride Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors Even) of 1915.
Motion was not out of the discussion yet, as artists who
studied fluxus worked into new creative ways for film and video. Andy Warhol,
who was another big name in the art community, known for his famous works in
pop art, also took interest in film as he performed Kiss in 1963, and Eat in
1964.
Solid post.
