As a pioneer of the Fluxus movement she revolutionized the concept of art and made history with contemporaries Karlheinz Stockhausen and John Cage. Today, at the age of 85, Bauermeister is far from retiring. From early morning until late at night, this extraordinary artist works in her studio near Cologne: a magical place. As a counterpoint to elitist "museum art", Mary Bauermeister founded her own art movement in the 1960s. Artists, scientists and philosophers from all walks of life went in and out of her studio to indulge in the spirit of avant-garde. For example, she made art history with personalities such as Karlheinz Stockhausen and Nam June Paik.
