N. Samara Guzman Fernandez

"I love how you laminate everything you can! My thought was to take that to the extremes (it could be more extreme but I didn't wanted to cross a line and start laminating my whole house). I grouped stuff instictively sometimes creating a story sometimes just matching themes."

Litsa Spathi
Nipples of Venus - Venusbrüstchen

-the second of two contributions to this project from Litsa -
New Fluxus Pralines. Ludwig Rigaud revived the tradition of the delicisous "Capezzoli di Venere", freely translated Nipples of Venus. This sweet speciality (based on a modern recipe) of tempting chestnut and nougat paste in white or dark chocolate--which is said to have been enjoyed by Antonio Salieri already in Mozart's time according to the Mozart researcher, Prof. Rudolph Angemüller--was newly developed by Litsa Spathi/Nobody (while she was playing with Allen Bukoff's Fluxus Play Set) for the Fluxus year 2011 Fluxus 50th anniversary..

Merry Ellen Scully

Allen Bukoff: "I ran into Merry Ellen at the Artcite opening for the New Fluxus Symbol Set. I asked her if she had done anything with the Play Set I had sent her, and she said yes, and proceeded to show me a couple of photos on her phone. She said she hadn't been able to get the photos off her phone to email them to me, so I decided to take a picture of her picture on the phone screen."
