| Summary |
"Witness of Phenomenon articulates a fresh examination of the German Group Zero--Heinz Mack, Otto Piene, and Günter Uecker--and other new tendency artists, who rejected painting and introduced new art media in postwar Europe. Group ZERO evolved into a network across Europe--Amsterdam, Milan, Paris, and Zagreb. This pan-European affiliation of artists generated a continuous stream of innovative artistic statements through the 1960s, incorporating non-traditional materials and new technologies to create kinetic art, light installations, performances, immersive multimedia installations, monumental land art, and the communication media of video and television. They transformed the visual arts from the inanimate objet d'art to a sensory experience by adopting the ascendant philosophy of Phenomenology as their conceptual foundation. Drawing from a decade of research on unpublished archives of the artists and critics of this period, this publication positions Group ZERO as a catalytic art moment in the transition from modern to contemporary art. N.B. Please ensure that any images originally supplied in colour are supplied in greyscale for print deliverables (print and POD PDFs) and colour for all others (including eBook and XML)"--Bloomsbury Publishing. |
