SUMMARY:Snapshot: Humanities Today at Brownell Library 
DESCRIPTION:The 1960s Fluxus art movement included unconventional artists\
 , inspired by Marcel Duchamp and John Cage\, who created intermedia perfor
 mative events utilizing simple and playful instructions inviting others to
  realize as well. These artists challenged the very notion of authorship a
 nd how art is made\, presented\, and received. Their radical aesthetic not
 ions influenced subsequent happenings\, performance art\, and postmodernis
 m where distinctions between art and life were erased and common day activ
 ities celebrated. Inspired by scores\, propositions\, and performance acti
 ons of Fluxus-era artists\, John R. Killacky created a new video\, FLUX\, 
 with a commissioned sound composition by Sean Clute.\nJohn R. Killacky ser
 ved in the Vermont House of Representative and was executive director of t
 he Flynn. His videos have been screened in festivals\, galleries\, museums
 \, hospitals\, and universities world-wide and are in the collections of n
 umerous libraries and universities. Sean Clute is an electronic artist\, c
 omposer\, and performer. His work has been presented at The Kitchen\, San 
 Francisco Museum of Modern Art\, MuseumsQuartier Wien\, ISEA – New Mexic
 o\, Dubai and Montreal\, Shenzhen Museum of Contemporary Art\, and the Aut
 onomous Mutant Festival. Clute is the co-director of the Rural Noise Ensem
 ble and Professor of Media Art at Vermont State University.
