The Fluxus movement surfaced in New York in the 60's, then worked its way to Europe and evetually Japan. Influenced by Dada, Bauhaus, and Zen, Fluxus objects and performances are known for minimalistic approaches and gestural movements with in many cases, a risque burlesque standpoint.
Often viewed as pranksters, the Fluxus performers were a group of radical leaders that aimed to change the social and political views of society in their time period. Yoko Ono is one of the best-known Fluxus artists.
