The Artist as Curator

Collaborative Initiatives in the International Zero Movement 1957-1967

Edited by Tiziana Caianiello, Mattijs Visser. Text by Dirk Pörschmann, Francesca Pola, Antoon Melissen, Johan Pas, Ulrike Schmitt, Andres Pardey, Stephan Geiger, Antje Von Graevenitz, Serge Lemoine, Beate Kemfert, Tiziana Caianiello, Tina Rivers, Caroline de Westenholz, Thekla Zell.

The Artist as CuratorThis massive publication, initiated by the ZERO foundation in Düsseldorf, presents the result of several years of collaboration by an international group of scholars composed of art historians from Belgium, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Switzerland. The texts are based on extensive research in various archives in Europe and the United States that has brought to light unpublished material. They reflect the cooperation of the ZERO foundation with other institutions, foundations and private archives.
Formed at the beginning of the 1960s, the ZERO group was an international network of like-minded artists from Europe, Japan and North and South America that included among its ranks such artists as Lucio Fontana, Yves Klein, Yayoi Kusama, Piero Manzoni, Almir Mavignier, Jan Schoonhoven and Jesús Rafael Soto.

NEW! The Artist as Curator: Collaborative Initiatives in the International Zero Movement 1957-1967, Margret Mack, Heinz Mack, Otto Piene, Jean Tinguely, Daniel Spoerri, Pol Bury, Yves Klein and Emmett Williams after the opening of Vision in Motion

Charles Wilp's 1959 photograph of Margret Mack, Heinz Mack, Otto Piene, Jean Tinguely, Daniel Spoerri, Pol Bury, Yves Klein and Emmett Williams (from left to right) after the opening of Vision in Motion, Antwerp, is reproduced from The Artist as Curator, AsaMER's brick-like, 538-page scholarly study of collaborative initiatives in the international Zero movement, 1957-67. Daniel Spoerri wrote enthusiastically to his friend Dieter Roth, "On March 2, there's a huge amusement-park exhibition of 2000 square meters in Antwerp where anybody who is interested in movement in any form should, can, and may contribute… you're invited too." continue to blog
