George: The Story of George Maciunas and Fluxus is a feature documentary as
mercurial as its subject, George Maciunas, impresario of the internationaI avantgarde
art movement Fluxus (1962-78). Fascinatingly 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 couId be Fluxus: kits,
shops, festivaIs, isIands, weddings, food, or Flux Lofts — the first network of
artist-owned lofts in SoHo, New York. The iconocIastic Maciunas and the spirit of
Fluxus provoke questions stilI critical to artists working today.
