Hardcover. Condition: Used - Like New. Zero to Infinity: Arte Povera, 1962-1972 focuses on one of the most innovative and influential art movements of the postwar era. Arte Povera came of age in the context of the economic boom of the ''Italian miracle'' and the subsequent student and workers' revolts of 1968. The work of Arte Povera was motivated by an urge to revolt not only against the primary achieved by painting in the postwar period, but also against certain aspects of the emerging consumer culture. This exhibition and its accompanying catalogue provide a highly comprehensive retrospective of the Arte Povera movement as a historical and aesthetic phenomenon that crossed a wide range of disciplines, including sculpture, installation, drawing, and photography as well as film and performance. The exhibition traces Arte Povera's genesis within the artistic, cultural, and political context of Italy to its positioning within the broader international context of postwar artistic practices, a moment marked by the participation of the Arte Povera group in the 1972 Documenta V exhibition in Kassel. This brilliant and crucial new catalogue is designed by the Walker Art Center's award-winning Design Department, and includes a wide range of essays by international scholars and curators, as well as rare historical documentation, in an unprecedented re-examination of the Arte Povera movement. Very nice clean, tight copy free of any marks.

Brossura. Condition: nuovo. seconda edizione. Quanto più passano gli anni da quell'ormai lontano 1945, tanto più appare evidente che la fine della seconda guerra mondiale ha segnato una cesura di grandissimo rilievo rispetto alla storia precedente. Questo vale in particolare per la filosofia come fatto culturale specifico che, dai suoi primordi in Grecia, ha caratterizzato per oltre due millenni la civiltà europea ed occidentale. Tracciare un bilancio della filosofia del dopoguerra, vedere se assistiamo semplicemente alla sua sopravvivenza, oppure a una sua radicale trasformazione, o addirittura al suo definitivo tramonto, significa dunque interrogarsi sul destino non solo della filosofia, ma della nostra storia presente e futura. Ma questo bilancio non poteva essere un semplice consuntivo; doveva piuttosto essere l'avvio a un confronto critico con idee e tendenze in pieno sviluppo, tutt'altro che canonizzate in schemi storiografici rigidi e esaustivi. Così un folto gruppo di specialisti ha preso in esame il configurarsi del pensiero del dopoguerra nelle diverse aree culturali. Per la Germania: gli sviluppi dell'esistenzialismo e dello storicismo fino alle correnti ermeneutiche, la teologia della demitizzazione, la filosofia della speranza e la Scuola di Francoforte. Per la Francia: la filosofia dello spirito, l'esistenzialismo di Sartre, il neoumanesimo di Merleau-Ponty, lo strutturalismo, gli indirizzi fenomenologici e ermeneutici, la presenza di Hegel, di Marx e di Freud, gli sviluppi più significativi del pensiero estetico e religioso. Per l'Inghilterra: la filosofia analitica e neopositivistica, le correnti linguistiche e i loro sviluppi in campo etico, religioso, politico e pedagogico. Per gli Stati Uniti: l'epistemologia, i rapporti tra fenomenologia e psicologia, la filosofia dell'arte e della religione, l'antropologia e la sociologia. Particolarmente suggestivo l'incontro con i filosofi italiani che, in una sorta di ideale tavola rotonda, hanno fatto il punto non solo sullo sviluppo del loro pensiero, ma sul quadro complessivo della filosofia contemporanea nelle sue principali correnti e sulla funzione della filosofia nella vita e nella società italiana. Una serie di agili note bibliografiche a ciascuno degli argomenti trattati fa di questo volume lo strumento più aggiornato per orientarsi nel dibattito filosofico più recente e per coglierne i rapporti con la scienza, la cultura e la vita d'oggi.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. 60 pages, b/w ill., 38 × 26.5 cm, English/Italian A scarce copy of a publication that is a long distance dialogue between two different generations, a young artist and one of the protagonists of Arte Povera. The pages of the only 1960s institutional catalog by Prini are xeroxed, mixed up, and modified by Pecoraro. The book draft is then reworked and adjusted by Prini, who defines his contribution with the line illustration by emilio prini, as if all images were a unique, single act. VERY GOOD (minor signs of shelf wear, pages clean and unmarked, binding is tight).

240 pp.; 22.5 x 20.5 cm.; sewn bound; black-and-white; edition size unknown; unsigned and unnumbered; offset-printed "This book does not aim at being an objective and general analysis of the phenomenon of art or life, but is rather an attempt to flank (both art and life) as accomplices of the changes and attitudes in the development of their daily becoming. This book does not attempt to be objective since the awareness of objectivity is false consciousness. The book, made up of photographs and written documents, bases its critical and editorial assumptions on the knowledge that criticism and iconographic documents give limited vision and partial perception of artistic work. The book, when it reproduces the documents of artistic work, refutes the linguistic mediation of photography. The book, even though it wants to avoid the logic of consumption, is a consumer's item. . This book produces a collection of already old material. . In this book there is no need to reflect in order to seek a unitary and reassuring value, immediately refuted by the the authors themselves, rather there is the necessity to look into it for the changes, limits, precariousness and instability of artistic work." -- text from Celant's introduction "Stating That."

First Edition
senza rilegatura. Condition: ottimo. prima edizione. "Twisted Standards" features two artists who are prominently presented in the collection. They are Emilio Prini and Elmar Zimmermann. With his affinities to Arte Povera, the Italian Prini belongs to an older generation. He will be shown with half a dozen primarily monumental photographic works from the 1960s to the 1980s. The German artist Elmar Zimmermann already participated in "Show 1" witha huge, site-specific installation entitled Eine Wand. In this exhibition, he will show this piece once more, offering new perspectives to this wood-felt concoction. In a selection of a handful of works from the last few years, some of them taken from thegarbage, some of them found or made of industrial materials, Zimmermann literally approaches Prini's older works. In his own days, Prini frequently challenged conventions as he declared something an artwork when many of his contemporaries had strong doubts regarding the artistic merits. This is exactly the type of ingredient Jochen Kienzle finds attractive.The title bears a number of allusions and is thus in keeping with the Kienzle Art Foundation's mission: It is the goal of Jochen Kienzle to show marginalized, quasi-forgotten or not very well known artists. He wants to investigate their positions and offer them a forum where their oeuvre can be discussed. This event is thus logical.The focus of "Show 2" is recourse to analogous black-and-white photography. The question of our standpoint is once more addressed in light of traditional media. And our present-day digital implicitness is thereby challenged. The intention is neither to be decorative nor to be tame. It is an attempt to re-reflect the numerous works of art, assembled over many years by the foundation, and to look at them again in a different light. The intention of the Kienzle Art Foundation continues to retain an open and discursive collection structure, as well as a clear commitment to art.A publication will accompany "Show 2." Once again, this is a large poster, presented as a leporello with images and German / English text", Text: Kletke Daniel. cm 15x21; COL and BW; scarce item.
