Fluxus in Motion: A Guided Tour through How We Meet at the Kunstmuseum Bochum

The tour of Yuko Mohri & Ei Arakawa-Nash – How We Meet opens up a view of an exhibition that presents Fluxus not as a historical footnote, but as a vibrant present. At the Kunstmuseum Bochum, installation, performance, sound, and sculpture intertwine to create an art experience that works with water, electricity, space, and movement. The exhibition runs from March 7 to September 13, 2026; the tour on September 2, 2026, falls on the first Wednesday of the month when entrance to the entire museum is free.

A Pathway Between Idea and Material

The starting point is the Fluxus collection of the Kunstmuseum Bochum, which recontextualizes works by Alison Knowles, Daniel Spoerri, Wolf Vostell, Mauricio Kagel, and Geoffrey Hendricks. Mohri and Arakawa-Nash develop a playful path where Water Money Salad connects the themes of water, money, and salad. The result is an exhibition atmosphere in which art history, contemporary art, and aesthetic experience question each other.

Yuko Mohri: Sound Sculptures as Delicate Machines

Yuko Mohri works with installations and sculptures that change depending on the environment, temperature, humidity, light, and audience movement. Everyday objects like umbrellas, light bulbs, hoses, or food become kinetic sound spaces where chance and precision meet. In Bochum, she presents, among other things, a specially adapted version of Moré Moré (Leaky Tokyo), a work where the leak itself becomes a poetic engine. Mohri represented the Japanese pavilion at the Venice Biennale in 2024. ([kunstmuseumbochum.de](https://www.kunstmuseumbochum.de/app/uploads/KMB_HowWeMeet_Handout-V4-ENG_WEB.pdf))

Ei Arakawa-Nash: Performance, Equality, and Thought Space

Ei Arakawa-Nash connects installation and performance with music, poetry, and participation. People, objects, and artworks appear as equal actors in his works. In How We Meet, he also explores the economy of art: CO2 balance, value of labor, and the logic of the art market emerge as critical topics. His approach references Fluxus and Gutai while anchoring the exhibition in the present. ([kunstmuseumbochum.de](https://www.kunstmuseumbochum.de/app/uploads/KMB_HowWeMeet_Handout-V4-ENG_WEB.pdf))

The Museum as an Open Place for Cultural Education

The Kunstmuseum Bochum is located at Kortumstraße 147 and is accessible for people with disabilities. It has its own parking lot and offers regular tours and educational formats. The exhibition is particularly suited for visitors who wish to not only view contemporary art but also experience it spatially and conceptually. The tour on September 2 is thus an ideal access point to an exhibition that understands curation as walkable thinking. ([bochum.de](https://www.bochum.de/Museum-Bochum))

Conclusion

How We Meet shows how vibrant Fluxus can be read today: as art of transition, encounter, and open experiment. The tour deepens this perspective with art historical clarity and sensory closeness. Anyone interested in installations, performance, and the history of experimental art should definitely experience this event live in Bochum.
