Conceptual Art
more about the artists and the artists idea,no skills needed.


Piero Manzoni:
Artist of early 60's signature was his magic medium to make women into art work,
it was like them being used by the artists as his material, like a prisoner of his idea. He died at 29. 


His most famous work a pile of shit,cans of his own shit in 1961, shit of a artist.


Fluxes: Everyone being tight fluxes was to liven everyone up, members from all over world. 15 or 16 years. movement so daft had such an impact.

fluxes is people doing weird stuff in 1960s but now its an art movement or something that happened in art, was a gigantic realise of energy, culture. burst of creativity. done as a joke presented as art.

Yoko ono:- cut peice 1965
