Fierens, networked collagist and visual poet provocateur, his work emerged out of Poesia Visiva, mail-art and Fluxist circles. Fieren's diverse practice focuses on language/image as a raw material and the exploration of alternative forms of distribution and communication. As such, he promoted a transnational dialogue prior to the inception of the Internet with his mail art projects (Social-Art, Cornucopiae) and publications (Postfluxpostbooklets) from 1984. Now he continues his research with artists from his social architecture with whom he exchanges, forwards, and directs art, and collaborative projects through the e-mail, and with whome he organizes associated meetings, performances, publications and exhibitions. Redfoxpress publishes various book Series focused on individual disciplines, artists and influences from all over the world. Their "C'Est Mon Dada" series, dedicated to experimental, concrete and visual arts in the spirit of Dada or Fluxus, spans now 134 books. Radical art, conceptual art, visual poetry.
