Research Guides
Artists' Book Reading List - Fluxus
We have a large selection of thematic reading lists for our Artists' Book collection. We have a new guide featuring books which are works by Fluxus artists, a community of experimental artists and performers from the 60s and 70s. The books include original performance prompts, event scores, concrete poetry, manifestos and more.
