Ken Friedman is a seminal figure in Fluxus, an international movement devoted to experimental art, architecture, design, literature, and music. Friedman had his first solo exhibition in New York in 1966 at which time he joined Fluxus as its youngest member. A heralded writer, Friedman has written extensively about Fluxus and Intermedia, has edited several Fluxus publications and has been widely published in peer-reviewed academic journals as well as in popular and small press publications. Friedman has also been involved with the mail art movement and he has worked closely with other Fluxus artists and composers such as George Maciunas, Dick Higgins, and Nam June Paik, as well as collaborating with John Cage and Joseph Beuys. In the early 1970s, he was the general manager of Dick Higgins Something Else Press.
