NO!art occupies the strategic juncture where artistic production and socio-cultural action meet. The NO!art movement was created in New York in 1959 by Boris Lurie, Sam Goodman and Stanley Fisher.
NO!art is based on the historical experiences of the Second World War and struck root in the early sixties, as a product of armies, concentration camps and lumpenproletariat artists. It's targets are the hypocritical intelligentsia, capitalist culture manipulation, consumerism and their Moloch's. Aim of the NO!art is total unabashed self-expression in art leading to social involvement.
Collective confrontation artists, no lighthearted Duchampesque, Dadaists, Neodadaists, or "pop-artists," no consumerism's middleclass nor Noveau Riche Liberals background makers. But believers in the unfashionable notion of the Art. NO!-ON SHOW asks to have the courage to change the course of the steering wheel into the essential progressive direction of humanity and mental-spiritual future.
