Higgins represents a new generation of Fluxus scholars who are impatient with the objective pose and historical rigidity of academic art history."--Simon Anderson "Hannah Higgins's book "Fluxus Experience" is a wonderful and much needed addition to the literature on Fluxus. Both insightful and provocative, her work offers a thorough consideration of the development and reception of Fluxus from the late 1950s through the early 1990s. This book is essential for anyone interested in Fluxus, particularly anyone who wants to understand its cognitive and phenomenological bases."--Owen Smith, author of "Fluxus: The History of an Attitude"
