The Art network Technologies of the second half of the XX century: the network promotion of Fluxus Art

Abstract

An emergence of the network technologies made the next revolution in the arts. The influence of this revolution on the development of the art means concerned also such movement in the art of the second half of the XX century as fluxus. In this article the «network fluxus» concept which describes a number of the artefacts arised in fluxus recently is entered. The Internet sites which devoted fluxus are not allowed to present its history to the networks only, but also became the new means of the creativity which are very actual for the modern generation of artists. Fluxus became the intertext, which organized as a rhizoma. Fluxus need to be extremely unsystematic and chaotic. But it is already impossible to realize this original project in the reality, of course, therefore the historical fluxus changes with the network fluxus. The network opens broader access to the art for the audience. Therefore fluxus turns from the option of a theatrical show into the new art form having other status in the society. But it doesn’t deprive its initial ironical and humorous installation and leaves it as the uniform fluxus-movement, allowing to create the projects in the former stylistics in the network space of the artly organized sites.
