Love in the Archive Film Series: Films from the Fluxus Archives

29 May 2026 | 6pm | RSVP Required
FREE for members | $10 for non-members

Alison Knowles (b. 1933-2025) was an American visual artist, poet, and founding member of Fluxus. The Fluxus group ethos sought to disassemble traditional barriers between art forms, while rejecting the exclusivity of the art world in favor of art as an open and participatory experience accessible to all.

The Misfits - 30 Years of Fluxus is an unconventional video portrait of the Fluxus movement, produced largely in Venice at the 1990 reunion, when many of the original Fluxus artists met for a major exhibition in connection with the Biennale, almost thirty years after the first iconoclastic Fluxus concerts were held in cities around the world.

“Topless Cellist” Charlotte Moorman is Nam June Paik's heartfelt tribute to his long-time collaborator Charlotte Moorman. This portrait traces Moorman's career as an avant-garde performer, from her classical training to her notorious arrest as the "Topless Cellist" and subsequent talk-show celebrity.

📸:

Kurt Steger has been a carpenter, woodworker, and sculptor for over four decades. He brings a high level of craftsmanship, design, and ingenuity to his creations, which in turn express his concern for the environment and humanity. His work has many influences, from Shamanism to Buddhism to Western psychology. Steger’s work is in private, public, and museum collections, and he received a NYFA Sculpture Grant in 2017. He recently launched a robust woodworking and hand skills program PeekSkills in Peekskill, NY for young people, in which he emphasizes character building through working with one’s hands.

His current and most ambitious sculptural project is the creation of his home sculpture garden, including a studio that he designed and built that he opens up to the public on a monthly basis.

Nadia Coën is a multidisciplinary artist based in New York City. Born and raised in Zimbabwe, she has generational ties to Austro-Hungary, Syria, and Egypt.

Coën’s experiential, time-based practice explores the intersection of architecture, poetics, light, and ephemera. Working under the umbrella of The Inclining Experiment, she has produced a wide-ranging body of work that includes architectonic light installation environments, text- and time-based projections, works on paper, artist books and printed matter, and artifact assemblages.

Coën also maintains a parallel practice in narrative spaces and exhibition design. She has co-created museum exhibitions at institutions including the National Civil Rights Museum, MoCADA, and the Alice Austen House Museum, and is currently developing two legacy museums in Kingston, Jamaica.
