3 unusual facts about Knud Pedersen


Knud Pedersen

The concerts in November 1962 brought together a group of four, consisting of Pedersen, Køpcke and two young Danish composers called Eric Andersen and Henning Christiansen, that enlivened Danish art life with numerous Fluxus performances in 1963 and 1964, many of them organised by Pedersen.

Besides works by local artists he exhibited works by Piero Manzoni, Christian Megert, Diter Rot, Robert Filliou, Niki de Saint Phalle and Daniel Spoerri.

Via Rot, Filliou and Spoerri he also came into contact with George Maciunas, the man who invented the name Fluxus.
