Dick Higgins, one of the main figures of
Fluxus (poet, musician, historian, theoretician, editor) points out the particularity of poet-artists who, since German and English Romanticism, have refused to make distinctions between what is sonorous, visual and written.
Fluxus takes up the flag of
Dada and brandishes it.
Dick Higgins (1938-1998) was an American composer, poet, printmaker, artist, and a co-founder of
Fluxus in the early 1960's. He was a seminal figure in
Happenings and the
concrete poetry movement.
