Like other Fluxus artists, Brecht and Watts relished the opportunity to publicize their activities. In the case of Yam Festival, a yearlong festival of exhibitions and performances that took place in New Jersey and New York, they did so widely and ingeniously. Yam Festival Newspaper represents one such effort. Instead of presenting information in a straightforward manner, however, the artists create an unruly collage of verbal and visual elements. Newspaper includes everything from poems, event scores, and advertisements for Fluxus-related publications to quotations, glossaries, "wanted" ads, crossword puzzles, and notices for drawing contests. Only some of this material is genuine; much of it is fictional, and all of it is funny or absurd.
