Introduction
Takako Saito (斉藤 陽子, Saitō Takako, born 1929) is a Japanese artist closely associated with Fluxus, the international collective of avant-garde artists that was active primarily in the 1960s and 1970s. Saito contributed a number of performances and artworks to the movement, which continue to be exhibited in Fluxus exhibitions to the present day. She was also deeply involved in the production of Fluxus edition works during the height of their production. She is best known for her special chess sets, which include Spice Chess, but her larger body of work focus on crafting a variety of objects to be used in open-ended situations to create unexpected social relations. She currently lives in Düsseldorf in Germany.
