	Fluxus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Fluxus was loosely organized in 1962 by George Maciunas (1931-78), a Lithuanian-American artist who had moved to Germany to escape his creditors.
		Fluxus (from "to flow") is an art movement noted for the blending of different artistic disciplines, primarily visual art but also music and literature.
		Fluxus has also been compared to Dada and aspects of Pop Art and is seen as the starting point of mail art.

	Modern America, 1914-
		Her second book, All My Pretty Ones, published in 1962, was a continuation of her first book of poetry, but its major focus was her concern for the loss of loved ones that made her break down again.
		"Confessional poetry is a poetry of suffering," according to M.L. Rosenthal, as quoted in Caroline King Barnard Hill's book, Anne Sexton.
		Anne Sexton's poetry was centered around her reactions to a life marked by drug and alcohol addiction, being in and out of mental institutions, and dealing with the deaths of many loved ones.

	Art in America: 20th century AD
		Fluxus was actually born in Wiesbaden in September 1962 in a festival of works with the grand title "Fluxus Internationale Festspiele Neuester Musik." This was the first public appearance of the word "Fluxus." Maciunas chose Wiesbaden because he was working as a designer-architect with the U.S. Air Force there.
		He discovered the word flux (Latin fluxus) by opening a dictionary, according to Emmett Williams, and putting his finger on a word at random, exactly the way Tristan Tzara supposedly found the word Dada in 1916 in a Larousse dictionary.
		Some Fluxus artists say that if George Maciunas--the Lithuanian expatriate, entrepreneur and one-time art dealer--had not named the tendency and rounded everybody up, publishing the work and producing concerts and exhibitions, we would not know of these activities now.

	U B U W E B :: Concrete Poetry -- A World View : Spain
		The recent advent of a new poetry movement in Spain was the result largely of the efforts of one man: Julio Campal, who began to champion avant-garde work in PROBLEMATICA 63 in 1962.
		The most obvious trace one finds in Spanish experimental poetry of the difficult conditions it has had to overcome is a semiotic use of language from which it is sometimes difficult or impossible to extract a meaning although one senses the presence of specific content.
		And at this point it should be noted that for Spanish poetry the traditional models are provided by the poets of the XVIIth century with the exception of Góngora, of course.

	Gwendolyn MacEwen Park Memorial - Readers
		It was his arrest for reading poetry in Allen Gardens Park, (along with that of Gwendolyn and Milton Acorn's) which challenged and ultimately changed the public speech bylaws of Toronto in 1962.

	Lolita (1962) review by the Jackass Critics
		It is written from the perspective of a scholarly English poetry professor who falls in love with a girl much to young for him; quite a racy subject matter for 1955.
		Production codes barred most sexual suggestions in movies (even kisses lasting 5 seconds or longer), let alone any sort of hint at a sexual relationship between a 40 year old and a 13 year old (although her actual age was never discussed in the film).
		Lolita’s mother Charlotte Haze (Shelly Winters) is renting a room at her house to any available single man she can draw into her web.

		Sentences still qualifies as the furthest anyone has pushed poetry and form in the investigation of the world.” I AM enough of a literary historian to know that this is certainly not true.
		But overall, a list like the one above exists as “the unmarked case,” the normative median against which the interesting work of that decade was written – with the notable exception of Ashbery.
		It also negotiates marvelously between the contexts of oral history, folk wisdom and the contemporary post-Stalinist culture that became embedded in a regime shaped by decades of war.

		Born in Osaka in 1962, Tawara's debut 1987 collection of tanka (the traditional thirty-one syllable poem also known as waka or literally "Japanese poetry") was oddly entitled Salad Anniversary (a phrase taken from a poem that commemorates the day her boyfriend complimented her cooking but nonetheless sold an unprecedented near three million hardcover copies.
		Another reason, too, is that Tawara's poetry does not address the standard elevated themes of either traditional Japanese poetry (the change of seasons, for example, or the beauty of Mount Fuji) or its twentieth-century avant-garde successors, both increasingly difficult for young Japanese today to appreciate.
		Instead Machi Tawara talks the plain talk of the girls she taught in high school until quite recently, talk of boys and clothes and shopping
