These films (some of which were meant to be screened as continuous loops) were shown as part of the events and happenings of the New York avant-garde. Made by the artists ranging from Nam June Paik and Wolf Vostell to Yoko Ono, they celebrate the ephemeral humor of the Fluxus movement.\",
\"long_desc\": \"Fluxus' interdisciplinary aesthetic brings together influences as diverse as Zen, science, and daily life and puts them to poetic use. Initially received as little more than an international network of pranksters, the playful artists of Fluxus were, and remain, a network of radical visionaries who sought to reconcile art with life.\r\n<br><br>\r\nDating from the sixties and compiled by George Maciunas (1931-1978, founder of Fluxus), <i>Fluxfilm Anthology<\/i> is a document consisting of 37 short films ranging from 10 seconds to 10 minutes in length.

(mb 7\/9\/18)\r\n\r\nRequests for Yoko Ono works on Fluxfilm Anthology can be directed to Simon Hilton, who manages Ono\u2019s film archive: simon@imaginepeace.com (km 3\/15\/18)\r\n\r\nNo archival licenses or purchases permitted. Screenings and exhibitions must be pre-approved by Anthology Film Archives. Our contacts there are, primarily, John Klacsmann (archivist): johnk@anthologyfilmarchives.org;\r\n(RC, 4\/13\/15)\r\nExhibition loans or screenings only. No archival licenses or life of work licenses permitted. - (RC, 3\/11\/15)\r\n\r\n**In a recent conversation with Andrew Lampert, it seems the Re:Voir contracts have lapsed with Anthology\/Jonas Mekas. RC and Andy had a general conversation about renegotiating these contracts directly between Anthology and EAI, which may lead to other licenses for additional materials.

His email is gartmedia@nyc.rr.com (RC, 1\/8\/09)\r\n<br><br>\r\nRegarding public exhibitions, Jon says the credit line should read: \\"Courtesy of\r\nRe:Voir and Gartenberg Media Enterprises.\\"\r\n<br><br>\r\nGartenberg Media would like to receive a copy of any exhibition catalogue that\r\nwould list this work with their credit line.\r\n\r\nJon Gartenberg\r\nPresident\r\nGartenberg Media Enterprises\r\n143 West 96th Street, Suite 7B\r\nNew York, New York 10025\r\nTel 212.280.8654\r\nFax 212.280.8656\r\nE-mail: gartmedia@nyc.rr.com\r\nWeb: www.gartenbergmedia.com\r\n\r\n<br>\r\n(per email with NL, 3\/21\/11)\r\n\r\nWORD MOVIE: \r\nCannot be shown on its own.
