An artful orchestration...wholly appropriate to the spirit of
Fluxus.
*AIGA*
By Alison Knowles smartly pushes the exhibition catalogue towards
the form of artists’ book, a fitting push for the work of such a
seminal figure in the field.
*Brooklyn Rail*
Though technically monographic, 'by Alison Knowles' necessarily
convenes an entire Fluxus ensemble. Isolating Knowles from Higgins,
Williams, George Brecht, Philip Corner, Shigeko Kubota, George
Maciunas, Benjamin Patterson, Nam June Paik, Takako Saito, Mieko
Shiomi, and the omnipresent John Cage is like extracting the glue
from a collage. In my experience, the best Fluxus exhibitions avoid
grasping at epistemologically slippery questions about what Fluxus
was and instead explore what Fluxus can still do.
