Z u r Ausstel lu n g

Es war seit jeher Aufgabe der Kunsthalle, ein weiteres Publikum uber die neuesten Tendenzen bildender Kunst
zu informieren. Sie hat dies in den letzten vier Jahren gleichsam programmatisch durchgefuhrt. Die Etappen
dieser thematischen Oberblicke sind : Licht und Bewegung/ Kinetische Kunst (1 965), Weiss auf Weiss/
Monochromie (1 966), Surrealismus / Phantastische Kunst (1 966), Science Fiction (1 967), Polychrome Plastik
(1967), Formen del' Farbe (1 967), Environments (1 968). Es waren dies die aufwendigsten, aber auch die am
besten besuchten und stets von einer Reihe von auslandischen Museen ubernommenen Ausstellungen unseres
Institutes. Auf Grund dieser Ausstellungsreihe erhielt der Leiter der Kunsthalle von der Philip Morris Europe
die Mittel fUr die Organisation eines weitern Oberblickes uber gegenwartiges Kunstschaffen. Die Wahl fiel auf
die sowohl in Amerika als auch Europa neueste Kunst. Zeigte die 4. Documenta letztes Jahr die Kunst bis
Anfang 1 968, so soli nun die gegenwartige Ausstellung, grob gesagt, das bisher Neuentstandene doku
mentieren. 1m Katalog figurieren 69 Kunstler aus Amerika, Belgien, Deutschland, England, Frankreich, Hoi
l and, Italien: in der Ausstellung sind es ungefahr 40, die mit Werken vertreten sind; denn uber die Aktivita
ten der andern kann lediglich informiert werden, da ihre Werke nicht ausstellbar sind.

Die Ausstellung Wenn AttitiJden Form werden ( Werke - Konzepte - Vorgange - Situationen - Informa
tion) wirkt gegenuber ihren Vorgangerinnen seltsam uneinheitlich und kompliziert, als eine Addition von
Erzahlungen in Ich- Form. Die Frage ist erlaubt : Haben wir es hier mit einer Reaktion auf die in den letz
ten Jahren ubermachtige Geometrie, mit einer subjektiven Kunst, mit einer Neuauflage des Taschismus zu
tun? Sicher konnen fur die meisten der hier ausgestellten Kunstler der vorgelebte Werkprozess von
Duchamp, die Intensitat in Pollocks Geste, die Einheit von Material, physischer Anstrengung und Zeit in den
Happenings der fruhen sechziger Jahre als Bestandteile eines kunstlerischen Stammbaumes bemuht wer
den. Doch in einigen Fallen sind es nicht rein visuelle Erfahrungen, die den Wunsch, Werke zu kreieren,
ausgelost haben. Hippietum, Rockerexistenz, der Gebrauch von Orogen mussten sich fruher oder spater auf
das Verhalten einer jungern Kunstlergeneration auswirken. Es ist bezeichnend, dass einige der Hauptvertre
ter von der amerikanischen Westkuste stammen, die ostlichen Einflussen besonders ausgesetzt ist. Vieles
von dieser Gesellschafts-Anti- Form, auf der einen Seite der Hang zur Kontemplation und andererseits die
von der Verherrlichung des physischen und schopferischen Ichs getragene Aktion, ist in diese neue Kunst
eingeflossen. In Europa sind weitere Mosaiksteine zu finden : das Fehlen eines Zentrums veranlasst immer
mehr Kunstler, in ihren Heimatstadten zu bleiben und gegen aile Vorstellungen der jeweiligen Gesellschaft
Bewusstseinskunst zu machen. Zugleich ist der Wunsch spurbar, das Dreieck, in dem sich Kunst ab
spielt - Atelier, Galerie, Museum - zu sprengen.
Dem komplexen Phanomen fehlt bisher der Name und Aufhanger, wie dies bei den bildbezogenern Pop,
Op und Minimal der Fall gewesen ist. Die vorgeschlagenen Termini Anti- Form, Micro-emotive Art, Pos
sible Art, Impossible Art, Concept Art, Arte povera, Earth Art treffen immer nur einen Aspekt: die
scheinbare Opposition gegen die Form; den hohen Grad personlichen und gefuhlsgetragenen Engage
ments; die Erklarung von Dingen zu Kunst, die bisher nicht als solche identifiziert sind; die Verlagerung des
Interesses vom Resultat auf den Vorgang; die Verwendung poverer Materialien; die Interaktionen von
Arbeit und Material; Mutter Erde als Werkmaterial, Werkplatz, die Wuste als Konzept.
Auffallig ist die vollstandige Freiheit in der Verwendung der Materialien sowie die Berucksichtigung der
physikalischen und chemischen Eigenschaften im Werk. Wahrend vor zwei Jahren Polyester und Computer
den progressiven Kunstler als Medien faszinierten und zugleich die Aussage bildeten, so scheint in
diese r Kunst das Medium nicht mehr wichtig: der Glaube an die Technologie ist durch den Glauben an den
kunstlerischen Vorgang abgelost worden. Nicht mehr das Hauptmerkmal heutiger Kunst, die Gestal
tung des Raumes, sondern die Tatigkeit des Menschen, des Kunstlers ist Hauptthema und Inhalt. Von
daher ist auch der Titel (ein Satz und kein Schlagwort) der Ausstellung zu verstehen : noch nie wurde die
innere Haltung des Kunstlers so direkt zum Werk. Naturlich war es immer so: Mondrian und Pollock haben
die innere Haltung Form werden lassen - aber im Hinblick auf das fertige Resultat, das autonome Objekt.
Die Kunstler dieser Ausstellung jedoch sind keine Objektmacher, sie suchen im Gegenteil Freiheit vom Ob
jekt und erweitern dadurch dessen Bedeutungsschichten urn die sehr wichtige, uber das Objekt hinaus
auch Situation zu sein. Sie wollen, dass der kunstlerische Vorgang auch im Endprodukt und in der Aus
stellung noch sichtbar bleibt. Es ist bezeichnend, dass die eigenen Masse des Korpers, die Kraft der
menschlichen Bewegungen fur diese Kunstler eine derartig grosse Rolle spielen, und das neue Alphabet
von Form und Materie (Trini) bilden.
Eine ganze Reihe von Kunstlern, so die Gruppe der Erdkunstler, sind jedoch gar nicht mehr mit Werken
vertreten, sondern mit Information, oder die Gruppe der Konzeptkunstler mit Werkanweisungen, die die
M aterialisation gar nicht mehr benotigen. Diese Konzeptuelle Kunst benutzt sehr gerne bereits bestehende
Systeme (Telefonnetz, Post, Presse, Kartographie), urn Werke zu schaffen, die schliesslich zu neuen
Systemen fuhren, die jeden Kommentar uber den Ausgangspunkt meiden.
Werke, Konzepte, Vorgange, Situationen, Information (wir haben bewusst die Ausdrucke Objekt und Expe
riment vermieden) sind die Formen , in denen sich diese kunstlerischen Haltungen niedergeschlagen
haben. Es sind Formen , die aus keinen vorgefassten bildnerischen Meinungen, sondern aus dem Erlebnis
des kunstlerischen Vorganges entstanden sind. Dieser diktiert auch die Wahl des Materials und die Form
des Werkes als Verlangerungen der Geste. Diese Geste kann eine private, intime oder eine publike, expan
sive sein. Aber immer bleibt der Vorgang wesentlich, er ist Handschrift und Stil zugleich. So liegt denn
die Bedeutung dieser Kunst darin, dass eine ganze Kunstlergeneration es unternimmt, die Natur von Kunst
und Kunstler im naturlichen Vorgang Form werden zu lassen.

I Saying is inventing.' Samuel Beckett, Molloy

This exhibition gathers a number of artists whose works have very little in common yet also a great deal in
common. The similarities are less stylistic than intellectual, at least among the participating Americans; a
few major groupings may be made-multiformal or non-rigid art (Claes Oldenburg, Robert Morris, Eva
Hesse, Frank Viner, Richard Tuttle), conceptual or ideational art ( Edward Kienholz, Lawrence Weiner,
Joseph Kosuth, Stephen Kaltenbach, Douglas Huebler), earthworks and organic-matter art ( Dennis Oppen
heim, Neil Jenney, Michael Heizer, Richard Long), geometric abstraction (Carl Andre, Sol LeWitt, Richard
Artschwager, Fred Sandback), procedural or ' process ' art (Richard Serra, Keith Sonnier, Robert Ryman).
Grouping artists by intentions or their choice of materials will create communities otherwise unrelated. For
example, it seems to be the aim of both Artschwager and Huebler to frustrate the viewer's method of infor
mation-gathering, but how different is a work of forty separate and widely distributed parts (Artschwager's
, blps,), from one containing information (package wrappers, registered mail receipts) substantiating the
work's dimensions in thousands of miles. In neither case is it possible to perceive the work in its spatial
entirety or its extension in time (in Huebler's case, about 40 days; in Artschwager's, however long it takes
to locate all the separate parts). But the two hardly resemble each other further.
The geometrically regular designs shared by Sol LeWitt and Carl Andre confer on the pair a stylistic relation
which is then contradicted in their work. Andre's piece is completely variable since its separate parts are
exactly alike. It is of no importance whether square x and square y change places. This formal arbitrariness
links Andre thematically with the users of flexible, thus variable materials. LeWitt, on the other hand, is not
only making geometrical designs, he is making them directly on the wall in order to eliminate variability.
His wall drawings are like both a great Italian mural and a wall graffito: if they do not exist in a fixed relation
ship to their environments, they do not exist at all. LeWitt's work, unlike Andre's, cannot be altered in any
way without being destroyed.
Richard Serra, an artist of a very different sensibility, also creates works to exist only in one specific place.
An amount of molten lead poured directly on the floor cannot be transferred from place to place, obviously,
but unlike LeWitt, Serra focusses our attention on the manipulation of the properties of matter. The location
decided upon for the distribution of a fluid material unavoidably affects the manner or means of distribu
tion; for example, the height from which Serra pours his lead will affect the very size of the result. Serra's
splash pieces are as situationally specific as any architectural or relief sculpture was ever meant to be, but
by a very novel and simple means.
One of the few general characteristics of the artists in the show is how they relate their work to location.
Generally, the choice is between a totally fixed position or a totally free relation of work to site. Carl Andre
has used the term, ' post-studio artists " to describe himself and others who do not actually make their own
art but have it fabricated. The phrase is equally applicable to artists like Serra or LeWitt, who make their
own pieces though not always in their studios, as well as to Kosuth or Weiner, who may use typewriters
and telephones, but eliminate the production of objects entirely. Weiner's ' wall Removal '-a work in which
absence constitutes presence-has already been seen in New York and Europe; both showings, according
to the artist, are the same work. Its identity lies in its idea, which can exist just as well as a ' statement ' on
the printed page. Serra's splash piece has also been seen in New York and Europe; in this case, however, the
artist insists that the two are completely different works of art. Identity lies in its actual presence, a posi
tion paralleled by the impossibility of moving the work from its site.
Both Weiner and Serra are ' right'. What matters is not so much the esthetic position in itself as the
extremity to which it is taken, and this exhibition includes some of the most extreme art ever produced. The
modern obsession with going as far as possible is demonstrated again and again; relationships between art
and idea, art and site, art and material, art and methodology are pushed to their limits by these artists.
Perhaps the only quality that unifies the artists in this show is their urgency.
The super -cool ironies of Bruce Nauman and the almost Expressionist pathos of Eva Hesse are two ver
sions of that part of the modernist temperament which is Romantic. The early Romantic, whether Percy
Bysche Shelley or Caspar David Friedrich, felt himself to be a tiny dot in the vast cosmos; Oldenburg's
vastly enlarged objects create a similar haptic response-one's body suddenly shrinks. The fact that Olden
burg is parodying the relation between self and the universe makes him even more of a Romantic; his desire
to create monuments is consistent.
To Robert Morris the uncontrollable forces of nature are embodied in the law of gravity, which dominates
his drooping spasmically curling lengths of felt. More than method, process becomes product itself when,
as in Morris's heroic and helpless cloth pieces, the work itself can be altered. Unlike an Andre floor piece,
any change in a Morris work may be noticeable,-though only to someone who has seen the piece in an
earlier state. Memory is essential to comprehension in this case.
Again arises the crucially important subject of time in the new art. The unambiguous forms of Primary
Structure sculpture tried to be like painting by inducing instantaneous perception; all information about a
Donald Judd box is obtained as quickly as possible. But the new art generally does not try to defeat or
deny its existence in time, but instead makes the viewer highly aware of it.
It is still ' minimal ' in its actual presence; note the avoidance of mass in Sandback's string pieces, the flim
siness of Sonnier's hanging fabrics, the reluctance to delineate volume clearly in Sa ret's crumpled balls of
wire fencing. Much of the new work looks vulnerable, not only spatially insubstantial, but dominated also
by the effects of time.
Though non-rigid art may at times refer to the weight and degrees of energy of the human body, it is not ' human
ist ' because the viewer so often feels excluded, deprived of some states or parts of the work. In a similar spirit,
Bruce Nauman's steel slab is said to have a mirrored bottom, but because it is hidden, we can only believe him.
Yves Klein's day in Paris as a work of art is less an exuberant gesture than the presentation of an event that is
impossible to perceive completely. Mere perception becomes a metaphor for cognition. The conceptual, cate-
gorical ambiguities of the new art stand in sharp contrast to its direct occupation of space or specific demon- J.
stration of physical laws.
The most fundamental law of nature is that everything that exists in space also exists in time; artists today work
with that knowledge in unforeseen ways. A Bill Bollinger rope piece does not c hange from day to day; indeed,
its fixedness, its tension as it stretches between two anchoring bolts, is its very point. But w hat happens to it
when it is disassembled? Does it still exist? If so, does it exist as rope, as potential art, or as art? Its installation is
made synonymous with its existence, whereas a painting or fixed-form sculpture, no matter how radical its C
esthetic, does not literally cease to be when it is in storage. The ontological instability of the Bollinger piece
introduces, on the psychological plane, an experience of anxiety about being, wich has been the chief subject of
philosophy since Descartes. Consciousness as proof of existence is translated in esthetic terms: conception as
method of creation.
Another Bollinger work (seen in New York in January) consisted of an amount of graphite strewn across the
gal l ery floor. The spectacle of a work in several different parts is not unfamiliar, but here is a work in hundreds of
thousands of different parts. Of equal relevance is the spectator's necessary participation in its form; when one E
walks across Bollinger's graphite-covered floor, it is inevitably changed in its distribution of volume. This is both
willed and accidental, a combination stemming from Duchamp and Dada, but recently more familiar as a compo-
sitional device in the work of John Cage, Merce Cunningham, Robert Rauschenberg, and, before them, the
Abstract Expressionists, particularly Pollock.
The artist who explores chance any further today has almost necessarily to use time in his work. Morris has an-
nounced his intention of working on his next show every morning before the gallery opens so that it will be '
necessary to visit in every day in order to keep up with the multiple changes. If Morris does this, his ' performance
will be at least as relevant as the work's tangible elements.
What is happening to form is what happened to order when it was subjected to chance by Duchamp, Arp, and
others; it proves capable of apparently infinite extension. (It is significant that several of the new artists use
flexible or extendable materials like rubber. The interaction between time and material also determines the artists'
continuing interest in ' common ', , non-art ' materials-cloth, plastic, dirt and organic matter, industrial flocking.
These things are mutable, perishable, sensitive to manipulation to a degree that more usual materials like stone
and wood are not. Several years ago Rauschenberg said : ' I try to act in the gap between art and life', for that
gap continues to narrow. Art has been veritably invaded by life, if life means flux,change, chance, time, un
predictability. Sometimes the only difference between t he two is sheer consciousness, the awareness that
what seemed to be a stain on the wall is in fact a work of art. Or a trench in the snow, or a pile of scraps,
or a hole in the wall, or a hole in the desert. After all, if a de Kooning pa inting is the record of a series of
acts, why not act directly upon the world by cutting a three-mile-Iong swath in t he snow, as Denis Oppen-
heim has done? (Robert Smithson has developed the dialectic between site and work of art to a high de-
gree of wit and complexity. Smithson's ' non-sites', consisting of photographs, maps, and piles of rocks or
dirt in his handsome bins, document his particular version of industrial archaeology for the gallery audience.
Both his direct use of the landscape and his system of documentation implicate him centrally in the new
directions of art.)
What we are witnessing is a new naturalism or realism born of extended collaborations between the artists
and nature, chance, material, event the viewer. The nineteenth-century manifestation of realism (especially
in Europe, which was not under the Arcadian illusions of contemporaneous America) was not only a style
but also a preference for a certain kind of subject matter-the raw, unpleasant, ordinary, ugly, proletarian.
A similar preference is felt again and again in the torn, flopping ' anxious objects ' in this exhibition. But
the humbleness of Richard Tuttle's wrinkled dyed, nailed-up pieces of cloth is rivalled only by t heir gran
deur of conception-they have no back, no front, no up or down, they may be attached to the wall or
spread out on the floor. Imagine making an object which will maintain its integrity in all circumstances yet
which exerts absolutely no demands on its situation.
To see the superficiality and profundity of similarities and differences between the artists in this show,
compare the Tuttles to the paint-on-paper works by Robert Ryman. The latter are glued to the wall in a
certain arrangement and though they are as flat and insubstantial as the other's cloth works, they are about
the conventions of a particular art-painting-rather than about the idea of art itself. It is not possible to
say whether a Tuttle is a painting or a sculpture; it uses properties of both and is probably neither. But the
Ryman must be seen in a strictly pictorial context, and especially one of recent American abstraction.
As American paintings have gotten larger and larger, they have also become thicker (primarily in Frank
Stella) through the use of extra-heavy stretcher bars. Painting has asserted more and more its objectness
through these means, and also in the departure from rectangular shape in many cases, and even in serialism,
which emphasized physicality through sequence. Against all these Ryman reacts to make works as physically
modest as they are conceptually demanding.
The deprecation of art, as in Serra's demonstration of something we all know-that one object will pin a
sheet against a wall if the tensions are correctly (not pleasingly but correctly) deployed-is only apparently
a deprecation. Art is still what is useless; for it to imitate the utilitarian is one way out of the plethora of
decorativeness in abstract painting today.
But particularly interesting in relation to modernist abstraction is the new emphasis on time, t he introduc
tion of duration and performance. Categories are being eradicated, distinctions blurred to an enormous
degree today. The difference between painting and sculpture has gone (following that between poetry and
prose in verbal art). The tremendous critical intelligence demanded from the ambitious artist is bringing him
closer and closer to the intellectual; art and ideas are becoming indistinguishable. The intention of some of
the younger poets is nothing less than t he blending of visual and verbal art; words are looked at, pictures
are read, poems are ' events', plastic or visual art is ' performed '. In dance, the difference between skilled
and untrained body movement is dwindling. The only large esthetic distinction remaining is that between
art and life; this exhibition reveals how that distinction is fading.
More precisely, is the occasion for t he mimesis of that fading. No afunctional act can really be anything but
symbolic, but it is compelling to see, at least, the continuing dilation of art's limits, to watch the quota
tion marks get further and further apart. In 1 91 3, Marcel Duchamp wrote, ' Can one make works which are
not works of "art"? '.

Un nouveau mouvement'"

Harald Szeemann a voulu montrer tout ce qu'on n'avait pas encore vu, tout ce qui venait apres le Pop Art et Ie
Minimal Art, sans veritable critere de choix; c'est la premiere impression qui risque de se degager de cette
vaste exposition. A moins qu'on ne sache que chacun de ces artistes s'interesse de pres a ce que font les autres,
que les decouvertes des uns se repercutent dans I'reuvre des autres, que ce sont les memes galeries ( Dwan,
Castelli, Bykert ... a New York; Ricke, Schmela, Fischer, Zwirner en Allemagne; Rowan a Londres; Sperone en
Italie; Sonnabend a Paris ...) et les memes personnes (des gens comme Richard Bellamy a New York) qui sui
vent de pres toutes ces recherches. On est alors en droit de se demander si cette exposition n'est pas la premiere
consecration d'un vaste mouvement international qui resterait a definir.

Un parallele scabreux ... donne:comme simple hypothese!

Au debut du siecle, sous les quolibets de la critique et du public, deux mouvements picturaux se succedent dans
un court laps de temps : Ie fauvisme libere la couleur, Ie cubisme Iibere la composition en la soustrayant a la pers
pective realiste. Apres ces deux etapes historiques, Ie terrain etait pret pour I'art abstrait, vaste domaine dans
lequel les personnalites et les styles les plus differents pouvaient se confronter.
Vers la fin des annees cinquante, Ie Pop Art et Ie Nouveau Realisme, par I'emploi de I'image publicitaire et
de I'objet,permettaient a I'art de sortir de lui-meme pour se rapprocher de la realite (ct. Rauschenberg, Ce qui
m'interesse c'est ce qui est entre I'art et la vie ... ). L'reuvre se voulait moins evocation du monde particulier de
I'artiste que resultat de I'action de I'artiste sur des elements de la realite. L'anecdote, liee a I'objet ou a \'image
publicitaire, n'avait pas encore totalement disparu.
Des Ie debut des annees soixante, Ie Minimal Art, retenant certaines le<;ons du Pop comme la volonte
d'une facture impersonnelle, \'importance des dimensions ... mettait fin a cette survie de \'image anecdotique
sans pouvoir s'empecher de la remplacer par autre chose; par \'idee d'une forme definie, representation du
concept de cette meme forme.
Chacune de ces deux etapes etait egalement une nouvelle liberation : liberation de la fonction illusionniste de
I'art en mettant I'accent sur Ie fait que I'image n'a de realite qu'en tant qu'image sans plus; liberation de toute
anecdote en ne conservant que la forme (ou volume) dans toute la simplicite de son evidence physique.
Seule cette idee de forme bien definie rattachait encore Ie Minimal Art a une notion traditionnelle de I'Art ...
abandonner cette derniere chose, c'est deboucher sur un terrain inconnu qui a des chances, pourquoi pas, d'etre
aussi vaste que celui de I'abstraction !

Un terrain it explorer ...

L'image est absente, la forme, a priori, indifferente, par quoi definir toutes ces recherches? Entre presque toutes
les reuvres qu'on peut voir dans cette exposition, on peut deja noter un point commun: la premiere chose qui
frappe, c'est la parfaite integration de ces reuvres avec leur entourage; aucun signe evident n'indique qu'il faut
les voir comme reuvre plutot que comme chose. Ce n'est que par la suite que la signification de ces cho
ses apparait, avec d'autant plus de force qu'on a pas eu a faire au trucage de I'art.
Le probleme du reel est depuis longtemps au centre des preoccupations de I'artiste; deja il etait au centre des
entretiens qu'avait eu Georges Charbonnier avec les principaux peintres de la generation abstraite et surrealiste.
Au moment du Pop et d u Nouveau Realisme,la plupart des textes critiques mettaient I'accent sur Ie fait que
I'artiste ne voulait plus evoquer ou traduire Ie reel, rnais faire de I'art avec Ie reel. Par la suite, Ie terme meme de
Specific Object que Robert Morris employait pour qualifier ses structures primaires indique clairement cette
preoccupation de faire des choses qui soient aussi reelles que n'importe quoi, tout en restant specifiques}}.
Ce n'est que maintenant que Ie pas est tout a fait franchi : les artistes de cette generation ne presentent que des
choses ... ils nous placent devant telle matiere, devant tel fait ou devant telle situation et nous laissent reagir.
La frontiere entre cette nouvelle forme d'art et celles qu'on connaissait deja est souvent difficile a etablir, d'au
tant plus que les sources et les references sont nombreuses. On a pu voir que ce mouvement decoule assez logi
quement du Minimal Art, d'ou viennent d'ailleurs de nombreux artistes de cette exposition, comme Robert
Morris dont I'reuvre a suivi avec rigueur toute cette evolution, Carl Andre, Sol LeWitt ou Artschwager. Le sur
realisme n'est souvent pas tres loin,ni le dadaisme,avec ce qu'il peut y avoirde surprenant et de provocateur dans
les choses proposees par des artistes comme Kaltenbach, Nauman, Kienholz ou meme De Maria. Ailleurs, on
croit voir des resurgences de la sculpture abstraite expressionniste avec certaines reuvres de Zorio ou d'An
selmo. Parmi les artistes dont les reuvres annon<;aient ce nouveau mouvement, il faut encore citer Oldenburg et
Yves Klein.
Chaque fois, pourtant, on sent qu'on a a faire a autre chose, a des reuvres a la fois plus simples, moins construi
tes, moins artificielles et plus evidentes.
Sans plus vouloir Ie contrefaire, I'evoquer, I'utiliser pour en faire des objets d'art, I'artiste actuel interroge sim
plement Ie reel. Comme Ie chimiste qui fait reagir deux substances dans une eprouvette, il fait reagir I'homme
avec un trou dans Ie desert, un tas de cendres, une simple information ou une matiere brute.
La plus grande liberte . . .

A partir de cette attitude, I'artiste n'a plus de raisons de se sentir limite par une forme, par une matiere, par une
dimension ou par un lieu. La notion d'reuvre d'art peut etre remplacee par celie d'une chose dont la seule utilite
est de signifier, notion tres ouverte qui recouvre n'importe laquelle des recherches si differentes qu'on peut
voir dans cette exposition.
\I sera alors interessant de constater comme ces choses en apparence si peu artistiques}} suffisent a exprimer
avec force la personnalite de celui qui les presente ... comme ces masses de plomb refletent la sensualite d'un
Serra, comme ces trous dans Ie desert evoquent cet espece de mysticisme sauvage et desespere d'un Heizer,
comme ces surfaces de latex floque deviennent \'image de I'univers aplani, subtil et presque doux d'un Sonnier,
ou comme toute la philosophie d'un Carl Andre peut se resumer dans de simples dalles metalliques.
Interrogeant ainsi Ie reel en toute liberte, ces artistes ont decouvert un des plus larges eventails de possibilites
expressives !

Et pour finir, quelques consequences pratiques .. .

Pour tous les polemistes qui, du point de vue de la sociologie de I'art, se battent contre les conceptions tradi
tionnelles du musee, de la galerie, de I'reuvre d'art ... ce mouvement est une aubaine ! La plupart des artistes de
cette exposition rejoignent, pour d'autres raisons, leurs positions: leur travail se fait partout et n'importe ou,
dans les journaux, sur les murs des villes, dans Ie sable, dans la neige ... n'importe qui peut refaire certaines de
ces reuvres, d'autres sont intransportables, perissables, invendables, d'autres encore invisibles et connues
uniquement par un reportage ...
Avec ce nouveau mouvement, I'art s'est libere de tous ses carcans !

N uovo a lfa beto pe r corpo e mate r i a

Negli ultimi due anni sono apparse sulla scena internazionale Ie risultanze di un processo artistico che ha riget
tato finora ogni tentative di definizione stretta. L' apparizione di quest'arte non ha seguito Ie regole della tradizio-o
ne del nuovo. Eclettismo stilistico e indifferenzialita di linguaggio, recuperi e osmosi, fanno piuttostopensare ad
una novita della tradizione. Ne si e presentata come un'arte che nessuno avesse 10 stomaco di digerire; gli
ultimi a volerla furono inizialmente gli artisti pop; dopo di loro, i minimals hanno coscientemente favorito un'arte
da etichetta. Ora sembra che i nuovi artisti ci siano riusciti: niente etichetta. Cia non toglie che abbiano gia
un certo mercato. Con I'attendismo dell'avanguardia e finita anche la pretesa di un apparente anticonformismo.
In Italia, e stata chiamata arte povera (Celant), con un accento particolare sullo spostamento d'interesse dal
I'oggetto al soggetto, dalle cose all'uomo, che esprime una realta univoca e non piu ambigua. In America, la
poverta dei materiali e stata assunta col termine di raw materialists. Ma ce ne sono altri: anti-forma indica
una plasticita che accade ed evita Ie forme - process art mette I'accento sui processo piu che sui risultato
e l'intensita intellettuale di certe opere viene assunta come conceptual art. Altra definizione, coniata da
Gilardi per una visione d'insieme, e arte microemotiva, che rileva l'indubbia emotivita racchiusa in alcune
opere e la lora mancanza di progettazione. Siamo come si vede di fronte ad un'arte largamente basata su un
pensiero nonselettivo e non-discriminante. Anche il tentative americana di unificazione che va sotto il nome di
earth works movement (patrocinato dalla Dwan Gallery), sembra indicarlo: l'intellettualita occidentale e
calata nella natura, nella sua indifferenziata fisicita e materialita - cia che rimanda infine al poeta (Carlos William
Carlos) quando diceva che non ci sono idee se non nelle cose.
Da Torino a New York, da Roma a San Francisco, gli artisti europei e americani hanno via via scoperto notevoli
corrispondenze. Questa insospettata compresenza di esperienze estetiche fondamentalmente simili fa pensare
ad una particolare condizione estetica in espansione. Sono esperienze che accomunano oltre 10 spazio gli ita
liani Pistoletto, Zorio, Prini, Anselmo, Boetti, Merz, Kounellis, Pascali e altri, con gli americani Nauman, Serra,
De Maria, Heizer, Andre, gli olandesi Boezem eVan Elk,gli inglesi Long, Flanagan e Loncraine, i tedeschi Ruthen
beck, Lohaus, Hoeke, ecc. Esse si ricollegano oltre il tempo, come per Joseph Beuys, artista piu che 40enne,
maestro dell'ultima generazione tedesca ma sconosciuto qui da noi fino all'estate scorsa. Lo stesso Morris,
caposcuola dei minimals, rientra con Ie ultime sue teorie anti-form nell'attuale elima. Tutte queste espe
rienze non costituiscono un movimento, ma sono un modo di pensare: piu esattamente, un modo di realizzare
praticamente questo nuovo pensiero.
Non e un'arte sulla vita, ne un'arte sull'arte, ma certo riguarda la condizione umana. Quando Zorio e Nauman,
Prini e Serra, scoprono una sostanziale affinita nei lora lavori riprodotti sulle riviste, pur senza reciproca in
fluenza e con opere I'una diversa dall'altra, si riconoscono necessariamente coinvolti nei medesimi condiziona
menti che Ii hanno portati aile medesime opzioni. In genere, questi artisti hanno acutamente valutato Ie forze
prevaricatrici che distruggono e discreditano Ie nuove idee artistiche, sono consapevoli dei cieli di obsolescenza
e delle illusioni sociali, sanno cia che il pubblico e gli specialisti si attendono da loro. La loro arte vuole essere
una risposta a tale situazione, una risposta positiva, ma senza adattarsi: non si limitano piu a sopravvivere, ma
oppongono una controstrategia. I lora lavori hanno abbandonato I'usuale terreno d'indagine tra arte e vita
adesso materializzano una ricerca di vita, e di vita liberata.

la condizione estetica

E a Torino, nell'estate '66, che si avviano queste esperienze con la mostra arte abitabile alia Galleria Sperone,
mentre Pistoletto espone i suoi oggetti in meno}} direttamente nel suo studiOI preannunciando la successiva
risoluzione di aprire il suo studio a tutti e I'attuale modello comunitario. Contemporaneamente Pascali e Kou
nellis sviluppavano 10 stesso discorso insieme con altri artisti a Roma, attraverso la Galleria dell'Attico. Questa
localizzazione e sintomatica: la creazione sembra piu favorita laddove abbiamo una struttura sociale oggettiva
mente piu repressiva. Conservatrice e ben ordinata, la societa opulenta di Torino ha agevolato la risoluzione
decisa, il netto non c'e altro da fare, di giovani artisti privi di illusioni. Una societa che puc permettersi una
frangia fuori del sistema: questi artisti non sono neppure piu chiamati ad integrarsi, e 10 sanno. COSt, nasce la
condizione estetica. Piu precariamente, la societa di potere tipica di Roma ha favorito negli artisti predisposti la
regressione al primario, I'uscita verso l'immaginario soggettivo. Vale la pena notare I'assenza di simili esperienze
a Milano, dove il dinamismo sociale coinvolge tutti, in una tensione a migliorare la vita che conduce i suoi
artisti all'attuale professionismo. AI contrario, 10 spirito delle esperienze torinesi e romane vive gia in una visione
post-industriale e post-tecnologica. Vuole cambiare la vita cambiando di civilta.
Per molti di questi artisti la decadenza del rapporto tra I'arte e la societa moderna e ormai totale. Tale constata
zione, piu 0 meno cosciente, e in genere condivisa dall'intero settore avanzato dell'arte. Da una parte, si tentano
recuperi ad ogni costa: sono i multipli, Ie programmazioni, Ie attivizzazioni di tecniche e di spazi: e I'estetica dei
procedimenti, I'arte tecnologica, e ogni altra forma espressiva consapevole che ogni cultura muta con il mutare
degli strumenti del comunicare (<<il medium e per qualche tempo iI messaggio). Dall'altra parte, si tenta per
cominciare il recupero di se stessi con un'esperienza in prima persona. Molti di questi artisti hanno un'acuta
coscienza del trasformismo in arte: 10 rigettano allora insieme con l'idea di evoluzione, progresso, sviluppo, COSt
come rifiutano la delega agli strumenti. Per loro il primo strumento del comunicare e I'uomo, la mutazione
comincia dal soggetto.

tregua linguistica

In Odissea 2001 , Stanley Kubrick fa comparire attraverso tutti i tempi, Ie civilta e gli spazi, un misterioso
monolito come testimonianza di una intelligenza superiore. Ricorre pure a diversi stili, dal minimal allo psi
chedelico.Ugualmente, gli oggetti di questi artisti e Ie l ore esperienze non fanno questione di stile, usano tutti i
linguaggi perche non hanno alcun problema di linguaggio. Alcuni si situano oltre I'oggetto, come reperti espe
rienziali da esibire pro-memoria, ma contro ogni logica attesa. Tutti comunque vanno oltre qualsiasi specifico
ling uistico, sia spaziale, percettivo, plastico, che simbolico 0 metaforico. Con la natura viva del romano Kounel
lis, gli oggetti rituali di Pistoletto, i processi fisicizzati di Zorio ed Anselmo, Ie nature liberate dei Merz, e Ie
sequenze oggettuali di Prini, Calzolari, Boetti, ropera d'arte vive con la presenza e la partecipazione di u n pub
blico attore tra cui sovente agisce I'artista stesso. Anche questi oggetti sana intesi a testimoniare una vita
superiore, convogliata da tutto I'orizzonte cultu rale verso il presente.
Con Ie loro esperienze COS! poco ideologiche, questi artisti COS! poco politicizzati hanno tuttavia fatto alcune
scelte chiare ed elaborato nuove pratiche per attuarle. Contro I'attendismo dell'avanguardia, hanno abbando
nato ogni pretesa di novita: niente espressioni d i punta, arte avanzata, proposte evolutive; se introducono mate
riali mai prima usati in arte (terra, amianto, piombo, grafite, ghiaccio, u ccelli, cera, catrame, reti, sostanze chimi
che, ecc.) e per ragioni di comodo, in primo luogo, e poi per intenzionare il loro rapporto con la realta il pill pos
sibile libera e fresca. Altra tattica, favorire la collaborazione verso 10 spirito comunitario. E COS! che con Pascali e
Pistoletto si e cominciato a eliminiare I'opera in quanto discorso, coerenza, uniforme linguistica utile al mercato;
tutti i ling uaggi essendo possibili, la reale strutt u ra linguistica e la sequenza di atti e di oggetti sempre diversi, di
comportamenti e processi, con cui questi artisti cercano un'uscita dalla competitivita e dalla mercificazione;
alcuni non producono pill oggetti rna spettacolo, creazione fluida in osmosi con il teatro. AI mercato si oppone
COS! un pu bblico partecipe. Ma questa tregua linguistica pare anche diretta, io pens, contro la creativita come
potere, in una situazione. sociale che trasforma I'esercizio della forza creatrice in esercizio di potere, la creazione
in status symbol. L'arte trova forse qui il suo punto nodale : conciliare I'esigenza quasi biologica del creatore
che vuole esprimersi compiutamente e individualmente, e soprattutto la realizzazione di una creativita genera
!izzata, con la struttura di ogni ordinamento sociale. Anche qui, come tentano di fare i nuovi artisti, la risposta va
data in prima persona.

al fabeto per la materia

Se Mario e Marisa Merz, se Prini e Zorio Boetti e Anselmo, disponessero di materiali Minnesota 0 Dow C hemical
avanzatissimi, di schemi logici e relativi computers della I B M, non mancherebbero di usarli. Ma allo stesso titolo
dei materia Ii artigianali e casalinghi che si ritrovano. Cioe, come processualita in cui coinvolgersi totalmente,
come strumenti di un'esperienza liberatoria e di un'affermazione dei lora bisogni originari. COS! come rifiuta il
mondano, quest'arte teme la ricchezza tecnologica; non ha bisogno neppure di dichiararsi anti-tecnologica;
tutto e a sua disposizione, tutto dipende dalle sue necessita strumentali. L'orientamento nettamente antropolo
gico da cui muovono queste ricerche assegna alia materia, e qu indi all'oggetto, i caratteri di un brico/age men
tale e comportamentistico.
Natu rale-artificiale e un tema tecnologico. L'antropologia preferisce dire Natu ra- C ult u ra . Dopo Levi
Strauss qu este due nozioni non sana pill necessariamente opposte : presentano anzi struttu re identiche, i pro
dotti della cultura non si distinguono essenzialmente dai prodotti naturali, il linguaggio obbedisce aile stesse
leggi che regolano Ie cellule. Per un'arte come questa, che fa visibilmente e plasticamente convergere natura e
cultura in una sostanziale unita, I'identificazione e processo corrente. Molti lavori infatti nascono come ritmo
psicofisico ( Marisa Merz), estensione della manualita e agibilita (Anselmo, Mario Merz, Prini, Calzolari), rea
zione chimico-fisica (Zorio). Inoltre, questa identita nat u ra-cult u ra traduce I'altro aspetto non meno importante
della spirito di queste opere : cioe, I'assunzione di dati reali univoci e f uori dall'intrattenimento dell'ambiguita.
Nasce cosl un nouvo alfabeto per la materia. Se il linguaggio vive come Ie cellule, I'opera d'arte che 10 materia
lizza ha I'arco di vita che gli assegna I'artista, e infatti molte di esse du ranD una mostra, il tempo di un'alchimia.
La materia evapora e diventa un'operazione, un rapporto: due idee espresse da due cose successive. Non ci sono
q u i nuovi materiaIi, come c'erano nuove immagini per I'arte pop, ma solo strumenti di fortuna per chi vuole
affermare in un incontro di autenticita i propri bisogni originari. E il senso di natura e tale, che I'atteggiamento
degli artisti verso natura e materia s'impronta alia nonviolenza, contro !'idea di dominic che il pensiero occiden
tale ha sempre esercitato su di loro, come idea di conquista scientifica.

alfabeto per il corpo

Superati i concetti di metafora e azione indiretta, alcuni di questi artisti hanno affrontato I'ostacolo maggiore :
fare un'arte che sia agi re diretto. Per creare un'opera che fosse cia che restava di un'opera precedente, Prini I'ha
gettata da una finestra. Ad Amalfi, in ottobre, sono state eseguite altre azioni. Difficile non interpretarle, non
scinderle in significante e significato, cia che riporta alia metafora e all'agire indiretto. In genere, una soluzione
consiste nel lavorare oltre I'oggetto - I'oggetto in se, come risu ltato concreto e percettivo - verso 10 spettacolo,
in unione col teatro. Cia e apparso anche un modo di rispondere al potere mercificante che investe ogni pro
dotto artistico, all'uso dell'artista come ricchezza.
Dopo aver abbandonato stile e autorealizzazione linguistica, I'artista rinuncia al contesto oggettuale e ai mate
riali di fortuna, per un'ulteriore irreversibile intensificazione del suo operare e del suo essere nel mondo - per
servirsi soltanto del suo corpo. E teatro vuol qui dire Artaud, Living Theatre, Grotowsky e simiIi. Questa osmosi
tra arte visiva e teatro sembra promettere un nuovo sbocco all' immaginazione al potere, un nuovo alfabeto
per il corpo necessario ad entrambe Ie sponde. Un corpo che gia in alcuni tentativi anticipatori a Roma e a
Torino, e limitatamente al settore arte, ha avuto funzione di effetto e non di oggetto, nonche di rapporto tra ceti
sociali diversi rna ugualmente tesi a creare nuovi fronti di autenticita; sensibilizzarsi a livello di corpo vuol essere
allora la risposta pill radicale che fa coincidere mediu m, messaggio e ricezione.
Con I'alfabeto per il corpo, tale esperienza e destinata a fondare e diffondere la pratica di una condizione comu
nitaria che realizzi quella estetica, passando dalla teoria alia prassi. COS! questa ha necessariamente i caratteri di
un'arte di minoranza, rna di una minoranza irradiante. Articolarsi per diffondere I'affermativo cambiare la vita
resta natu ralmente il suo problema. Perche non ha ancora trovato la sua isola di autenticita, ne ha intenzione di
cercaria solo per se. Tommaso Trini

I cordially hope the weather will be mild during the exhibition


with wind-force 3 m/sec. so there will be a moderate breeze:
then leaves and twigs are in constant motion, small branches
begin to move. Dust and paper will whirl round above the ground.

Mass can be a vacuum, ifit is pervaded by a universe.


Masse kann leerer Raum sein, wenn sie von einem Universum durchdrungen ist.
Impregnee d'un univers, la masse peut etre un vide.

On January 9, 1969 a clear plastic box measuring

1" x 1" x 3/4 " was enclosed within a slightly larger cardboard

container that was sent by registered mail to an address in

Berkeley , California . Upon being returned as "undeliverable "

it was left altogether intact and enclosed within another slightly

larger container and sent again as registered. mail to Riverton,

Utah - and once more returned to the sender as undeliverable .

Similarly another container enclosing all previous

containers was sent to E llsworth, Nebraska ; similarly to Alpha,

Iowa ; similarly to Tuscola, Michigan ; similarly and finally to

Hull, Massachusetts which accomplished the "marking " of a

line j oining the two coasts of the United States during a period of

six weeks of time .

My sculpture is theatrical. The activity among the physical presences of the items and events they realize, provided they exist together,
is theatrical.
This goes beyond the visual image.
Ideally my sculpture exists unseen.
Summer 1968 - Neil Jenney.

Meine Werke sind theatralisch. Die Wirksamkeit der physischen Prasenz der einzelnen Gegenstande und der Ereignisse, die diese
vorausgesetzt, dass sie zusammen existieren - bewirken, ist theatralisch.
Das filhrt ilber das nur- visuelle Bild hinaus.
1m idealen Fall existieren meine Skulpturen ungesehen.
Sommer 1968 - Neil Jenney.

Mes sculptures sont theatrales. L' activite de la presence physique des objets et des evenements qu'ils suscitent - pourvu qu'its
existent ensemble - est theatrale.
Cela va bien au-dela de !'image visuelle.
Dans Ie cas ideal mes sculptures existent non- vues.

J. K. My c urrent work, which consists of c ategorie s fr om the the s aurus ,

deals with the multiple aspects of an idea of something. And, like

the other work, it ' s an attempt to deal with abstraction. The

large st change has been in its for m of pr e s entation - going from

the mounted photostat, to the pur chasing of spac e s in new spape r s

and periodic als (with one "'w or k" sometimes taking up a s many as

five or s ix spac e s in that many publications - depending on how

many divisions exist in the c ategory. ) Thi s w ay the immateriality.

of the w ork is str e s s ed and any pos s ible c onnections to painting

are s eve r ed . The new work is not c onnected with a pr ecious obj ect

- it ' s ac c e s s ible to as many people as ar e intere sted ; it ' s non

decorative - having nothing to do with architectur e ; it c an b e

br ought into the home o r museu m , but w as n 't made with either

in mind ; it c an b e dealt with bJ being torn out of its public ation

and inserted into a notebook or stapled to the wall - or not torn

out at all - but any such decision is unr elated to the art. My r ole

as an artist ends with the w ork ' s publication.

Mmmmmmm ... Mmmedalla ! What do you dream of ?)J

I dream of the day when I shall create sculptures that breathe, perspire, cough, laugh, yawn, smirk, wink, pant, dance, walk, crawl,
. . . and move among people as shadows move along people ... Sculptures that will retain a shadow's secret dimensions without a
shadow's obsequious behaviour ... Sculptures without hope, with waking and sleeping hours ... Sculptures that, on certain seasons,
will migrate en masse to the North Pole. Sculptures with a mirror's translucency minus the memory of a mirror!JJ

- Die Objekte sind Instrumente und bedeuten in der Anschauung nur wenig.
- Nicht die Objekte sind wichtig, sondern das, was durch sie/mit ihnen entsteht und moglich ist.

- These objects are instruments, they have only little signification in perception
- Not the objects are important, only what is possible and originating in using them.

- Les objets sont des instruments qui ne signifient que peu quant a leur aspect exterieur.
- Ce ne sont pas les objets qui sont importants mais ce qui nait et les possiblites inherentes a leur usage.
