Eric Andersen Born in Antwerp 1940 is an artist associated with the Fluxus art movement. He lives in Copenhagen, Denmark. ==Life and work== In 1962 Andersen first took part in one of the early concerts given by Fluxus held during the Festum Fluxorum in the Nikolai Kirke (Nicolas Church) in Copenhagen.〔Owen Smith (1998) Fluxus: The History of an Attitude, San Diego State University Press, p.83〕 He soon took an early interest in intermedial art.〔The Fluxus Reader by Ken Friedman ISBN 0-471-97858-2 Page 43, Page 44, Page 125〕〔Hannah B Higgins, "The Computational Word Works of Eric Andersen and Dick Higgins" in H. Higgins, & D. Kahn (Eds.), Mainframe experimentalism: Early digital computing in the experimental arts, p.283〕 In his ''Opus'' works from the early 1960s, Andersen explored the open interaction between performer and public,〔Higgins, Hannah. Fluxus Experience. Berkeley: University of California Press, 2002. ISBN 0-935640-40-1 p. 150〕 developing open self-transforming works, such as ''arte strumentale''. Andersen’s performances depend very much on the public. This is true of not only his Fluxus actions but also his installations, to which the public may be prompted to contribute. From 1962 to 1966 he worked closely with Arthur Kopcke, turned in the late 1960s to mail art and then in the 1970s was concerned with geographical space. His most eminent works include ''Hidden Paintings'', ''Crying Spaces'', ''Confession Kitchens'', ''Lawns that turn towards the Sun'' and ''Artificial Stars''. Andersen was often a guest in the former East Block countries. In 1966, he held a three-day event in Prague with the Fluxus artists Tomas Schmit and Milan Knížák. Those were the first Fluxus events in Czechoslovakia. In Poland he exhibited in Galeria Akumulatory 2 in Poznań and in the Galeria Potocka in Kraków. In 1996, the year in which Copenhagen was ''Europe’s cultural capital'', Andersen arranged a three-day inter-media event involving parachute-jumping, helicopters, mountaineering, live sheep and 500 singers walking on water. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eric Andersen (artist)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
