George Maciunas, Diagram of Historical Development of Fluxus

and Other 4 Dimentional (sic), Aural, Optic, Olfactory, Epithelial and Tactile Art Forms, 1973. Offset lithograph. Two sheets pasted together (now loose), 172.5 x 58.5 cm. Folded four times. One sheet with browning and wear, second sheet a bit cleaner.

Also known as The Chart, Maciunas' diagram outlines the development of Fluxus while situating it within a wider cultural and art historical spectrum. The timeline begins with Roman circuses, medieval fairs, and Futurist theatre and moves into Dada, Surrealism, and Vaudeville before addressing developing genres like Earth Art and Happenings and finally ending with Flux Games in 1973.
