The Thing Quarterly is ‘a magazine in the form of an object’, sometimes being a book. The artist’s book The Fabric of Events of Mike Mills is a compilation of factual stories on social and political issues published in newspapers and other media. Ultra short stories about a catched wild bear in the 19th century, Sammy Davis Jr. staying in the White House, an Iraqi shoe thrown at U.S. President George W. Bush, etc. The idea of reconstructing historical moments by describing an event creates the fabric of events.

OLIVIER MOSSET / George Maciunas, n.d. [heap of confetti ca 1969]
35 grams confetti as “Production Art”
handmade by George Maciunas for “Flux Dots By Mosset Total Art Nice”, in plastic box with label
In 2008 Olivier Mosset prepared a solo exhibition in Galerie van Gelder in Amsterdam. Next to several huge monochrome paintings he brought a white envelope. As part of the legacy of George Maciunas the heirs didn’t know what to do with the left-overs of the multiple box Flux Dots By Mosset Total Art Nice. So they gave it to me, he said while handing over the envelope: “I don’t know what to do with it, so I thought I just give it to you. You can do with it what you like.”
Usually George Maciunas only produced a Fluxus box when someone was interested in buying one. So this envelope with confetti originally comes from his stock.
In short this envelope with confetti is neither art nor just a bunch of confetti. These pieces of handmade “Flux dots” (a name Olivier Mosset would never use since he never considered himself to be associated with the Fluxus movement) were once meant to be part of a plastic box series called “Flux Dots By Mosset Total Art Nice”. In the end both artists have touched these particles; for sentimental and also historic reasons this piece could best be named On hold Art.
