Renowned rubber stamp artist Picasso Gaglione stopped by the Beaver Dam last week to give us the inside scoop on FLUXFEST, opening today at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago. The Dada-inspired fest will feature contemporary re-interpretations of classic Fluxus scores and actions, new Fluxus performances, and a presentation of the Postal Art Network.

FLUXFEST runs February 15-20 at the MCA Chicago.
