Second edition
First published in 1963, An Anthology of Chance Operations is the first collective publication by artists who would go on to become part of Fluxus, at the invitation of experimental musician La Monte Young. This work celebrates the dynamics of chance, experimental music and the concepts of non-determination. Fluxus is an international and multidisciplinary artistic movement that primarily advocates a mischievous and rebellious mindset inspired by Dada. These artists hope to challenge the figure of the solitary artist and his or her ‘genius’..
