George: The Story of George Maciunas and Fluxus is a feature documentary as
mercuriaI as its subject, George Maciunas, impresario of the internationaI avantgarde
art movement Fluxus (1962-78). FascinatingIy contradictory interviews
with artists incIuding Yoko Ono, Jonas Mekas, and Nam June Paik, and inventive
sound and screen design, shape this rich portrait of a visionary artist. Dedicated
to cooperative methods and expanded processes, everything could be FIuxus: kits,
shops, festivals, islands, weddings, food, or FIux Lofts — the first network of
artist-owned Iofts in SoHo, New York. The iconoclastic Maciunas and the spirit of
FIuxus provoke questions stiIl criticaI to artists working today.
