Performance Calendar: an ongoing, collaborative Fluxus project featuring a new performance score each month from January 2019 to present
“For whom? Anyone. / When? Anytime.”
Drawing on practices from the Fluxus experimental art movement, Performance Calendar is an ongoing, collaborative project by percussionist/dancer/ interdisciplinary artist Indigo Cook. The work is structured around the composition and realization of a new Fluxus performance event score each month of the year from January 2019 to present.
The project originally began with Cook’s realization of Fluxus composer Don Boyd’s 1989 piece A Performance Calendar (for El Djerrida). For each month in 2019, Cook performed a different text score, responding to and interpreting written instructions by Boyd.
Performance Calendar has since expanded into a continuous Flux performance with a new 12-part score each year, a collaborative roster of 26 artists and counting, and no end in sight.
