Save The Nature—Use Fluxus, The Box Parking Lot, Los Angeles, November 17th, 2019 Artist Edition is a remarkable document of a live Fluxus performance captured in Los Angeles, bringing together the experimental spirit of Henning Christiansen's legacy with contributions from key collaborators including Ursula Reuter Christiansen, Bjørn Nørgaard, and Paul McCarthy. The recording itself is a boundary-pushing electronic and experimental soundscape, featuring elements like field recordings, improvised instrumentation, and the now-iconic rhythmic bashing of a gallery door with a piece of 2×4 pinewood — a raw, meditative nod to the repetitive ethos of Fluxus.
This Artist Edition is an extraordinary collector's artifact, housed in a wooden crate and packed in hay — a direct reference to Henning Christiansen's installation Scharfe Statt Geigen (Sheep Not Violins) — and includes the original 2LP set alongside exclusive original artworks from the event's principal artists. Each set contains a unique Ursula Reuter Christiansen ink and crayon drawing from her Crazy World series, a resin skull from Bjørn Nørgaard's sculptural performance piece The Cake, a fragment of Paul McCarthy's performance 2×4 with accompanying poster, and a vintage toy frog connecting the work to Henning Christiansen's personal mythology and field recordings.
