ah yeah? for my music, you mean?
I'd honestly never heard the term before, so I've been checking out all sorts of different articles
It seems like it's based on a whole deconstruction of art, though, where I feel like so far I've never made anything that's anti-art... just extreme simplifications of figures. well now I'm talking about my drawings. It's weird, I think my music and my drawings are in two different movements D:

Hm, dunno, I don't think you can make a blanket statement that some styles would never work with furry subject matter. It probably depends a lot on the skill of the individual artist. Personally, I'm a big fan of lowbrow, but I don't think it's done often enough. I like art to have commentary in it.
What I want to know is why there are no furry impressionists D:
You did a pretty good job with this, but my inner statistics nerd has a suggestion for you. The problem with Venn-diagrams is that the categories are represented in a discrete nature, however most artist's styles consist of a gradation of many different disciplines. We encounter related issues a lot when trying to graph the levels theoretical constructs in psychology. It would make more sense to rank artists dimensionally and plot them on some sort of mixed coordinate system.

Finding a way to generate a form to place artists in this thing would make for a wicked search engine. But then the form would require some degree of objective/subjective predisposition - We can barely get computers beyond the intelligence of slugs, let alone have it categorize furry art (wait.. maybe it can!) ;3. Maybe a voting form?
Man, I ain't even heard of Fluxus. But then again I just really don't try to put myself in any movement because I take all my influences from outside the "fine art" scene.
On the other hand I've had a solo exhibit at a gallery whose mission statement is to make a place for pop surrealist/lowbrow stuff on the East Coast. I dunno. I just draw.

You have Dustmeat/MeganGiles on the chart twice. Tegerio/Joshua Kennedy not at all, nor Schirm (Outsider, maybe?), Steve Gallacci, Heywulf/KenFletcher, and numerous others are absent. There are only 11,000 members of FA, aren't there? At least half are crap and can be ignored, but that means you have 5,500 others to categorize!
Proudly, I don't fit into any of these catagories! Therefore I proclaim the title of 'Deep Cartoon' Not quite pop, not low-brow, more than toon art... *jumps outside the box and sings* :note Ain't nothin' gonna break a-my stride/ain't nothin' gonna hold me down, woah no, I got to keep a-moovin'!
In all seriousness, this is a brilliant idea

Actually, this one is the older version. The one you're thinking of is the newer version and it's still online here:

Not sure why I put in the title that this is the updated version, unless there was another version before this that I am totally forgetting.

This made me realize just how difficult it is to use regular genre classifications when talking aobut furry art, and made me think of how a system for furry subgenres would look like. I figured one could use a couple of scales to help visualize it. Realistic-abstract would be a given, for example, tough I'd mend it with having a controlled-sketchy scale as well.
Another that one might use would be general-fetishistic, not to be confused with general art and mature art, I can think of a lot of artists who draw rather tame stuff that is still the sort of thing that turns them on.
Yet another I figured would be earnest-ironic, its a little hard to classify, but basically how much the artist likes taking the piss out of whatever they draw
then maybe minimalistic-maximalistic, if the design is generally ascetic of crowded. If I'd classify myself using this idea I'd be leaning towards the abstract scale, around wherever "cartoony" would be, and pretty darn sketchy, moderately fetishistic (evening it ut between my porn account and this regular one), pretty firmy in the earnest category (I'm not a good satirist). As to what the genres would actually be named, I think that's something that could best be solved by downing a large bottle of vodka and writing down whatever make sense at the time. Also considering how furry art usually work, one would prolly have to take into account which popular anime, cartoon or other furry artist they are trying to imitate....
