The exhibition entitled “The Creative Act” brings together several artistic projects which use different methods to create narratives based on historical material. The exhibition has come about as the result of the recognition that many artists look on archives as an actively discursive system that they can utilise to point to phenomena of the times. In this context, "history" is taken to mean the recent past.

Fluxus is a radical, anti-art network that emerged in the USA and in West Europe in the early 1960s. The group’s radical attempts to free art included experiments with creating art crossed with music, theatre, poetry and visual art and introducing it into the daily lives of each and every one of us. With support from the ForArt Foundation, the Art Centre’s Fluxus collection will be displayed.
