Tourism, Community and Art History: Trip-Projects Organized by George Maciunas (1959-1976)
Abstract
This essay deals with one of the less academically researched topics on George Maciunas art and the movement with which this artist is associated with, the Neoavantgardist Fluxus. Proposed between 1959 and 1976, these trip-projects organized by George Maciunas imply an immersion in the cultural practice of tourism while also deals with other relevant issues such as migration, community building and art-history discourse, an academic discipline in which Maciunas himself was trained. The result aims at questioning traditional models of cultural tourism practices while also fleshes out the contradictions of the arguments against tourism delivered from current radical critical theory.
