Ken Friedman (born 1949) is an artist and scholar known for his involvement with Fluxus, an international group of experimental artists. Influenced by the Dada art movement, these artists created works of video, conceptual and "intermedia" art, combining different mediums as a critique on the commercial art world. Friedman, one of the youngest members of the group, collaborated with George Maciunas and Joseph Beuys, and also worked in publishing, most notably for Dick Higgins' Something Else Press, which published works of experimental art and poetry.
