JACQUES LIZENE
Jacques Lizène (Liège, Beligium, 1946), was among the most productive members of the Liège artists’ collective ‘Le Cercle d’Art prospectif’ (CAP), who, from 1972 onwards, developed a considerable body of work in the vein of so-called ‘relational’ art. Their political and sociological standpoints are reminiscent of Fluxus, even though Lizène prefers to designate his own work as “Non-Fluxus.” Whereas Fluxus embraces life, Lizène opposes his work to it: with a tongue-in-cheek attitude he embodies “vasectomy” and “infantilism”. He sees his projects as being products of the virtual “institut de l’art stupide”; they are “easy”, “unimportant”, even “ridiculous”.
