Art's Birthday 2016 – 1,000,053 Years of Art

Celebrating Art's Birthday is a tradition started by French Fluxus artist Robert Filliou who declared, on January 17th 1963, that Art had been born exactly 1,000,000 years ago when somebody dropped a dry sponge into a bucket of water.

Throughout the last decades artists continued organising annual celebrations in the spirit of Filliou's "Eternal Network" or "La Fête permanente". Also in 2015 all over the world will again be numerous networked birthday parties for art! Join and celebrate!

These presents we invite you to upload to our present pool online under Upload-Tool.

A selection of presents will also be part of the Kunstradio Party on site in the RadioKulturhaus Wien, in the Funkhaus, and be presented in the January on air editions of Kunstradio.

Should you have any questions or plan to organise a party yourself, please do not hesitate to contact us under: kunstradio [at] kunstradio [dot] at

Spread the word! This is a party you can bring as many people and presents as you wish!
