Raphael Montañez Ortíz: What does Fluxes have to do with it
Since the late 1950s, Raphael Montañez Ortíz has directly engaged with the violent and destructive tendencies of society through found objects and action-based art. A veteran of Fluxus and the Destruction Art movement of the 1960s, Ortíz is best known for his piano destruction concerts, but his practice encompasses film, video, sculpture, and subtler forms of performance art. At the MFA, Ortíz invites Boston-area performance artists, students, and the audience to engage in a new performance, WHAT DOES FLUXES HAVE TO DO WITH IT, 2013, which will be followed by a video screening of several rarely seen works.
7—9pm / Free with Admission - No Ticket Required
