Women of Fluxus, Radical and Playful Artist Collective | On This Spot NYC

80 Wooster Street, An Irreverent, Playful Approach to Art Fluxus was a radical, chaotic 1960s SoHo collective, inspired by Dadaism and famous for breaking rules and boundaries. Leading member Yoko Ono produced conceptual art pieces such as "Painting to be Stepped On" and "Bottoms" which reflect pure Fluxus philosophy, demanding audience participation, embracing chance, and breaking new ground in experimental art. The many women of Fluxus produced work that was multi-sensory, interdisciplinary and often playful. Anti-art became a force for change and shock value meant empowerment. Through short-form documentaries, On This Spot NYC: Stories of Pioneering Women Artists re-centers a diverse group of women artists within a broader, more inclusive history of New York's creative life. We bring together both celebrated and overlooked figures in a format that is concise enough for a digital audience, yet rich enough to engage sophisticated viewers. Each documentary is developed through rigorous research in collaboration with artists, historians, and scholars. Combining biography, place-based storytelling, archival photographs, and rare footage, our films reveal the people, places, and ideas that shaped New York's artistic history through a feminist lens. On This Spot NYC, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. We welcome collaboration and support from all who share our vision of a more inclusive art history.
