Arte Povera (; literally ''poor art'') is a modern art movement. The Arte Povera movement was during 1967-1972 and took place in cities throughout Italy: Turin, Milan, Rome, Genoa, Venice, Naples and Bologna. The term was coined by Italian art critic Germano Celant and introduced in Italy during the period of upheaval at the end of the 1960s, when artists were taking a radical stance.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.moma.org/collection/theme.php?theme_id=10454 )〕 Artists began attacking the values of established institutions of government, industry, and culture. The exhibition Im Spazio (The Space of Thoughts), curated by Celant and held at the Galleria La Bertesca in Genoa, Italy, from September through October 1967, is often considered to be the official start of Arte Povera.〔 Celant, who became one of Arte Povera's major proponents, organized two exhibitions in 1967 and 1968, followed by an influential book published by Electa in 1985 called ''Arte Povera Storie e protagonisti/Arte Povera. Histories and Protagonists'', promoting the notion of a revolutionary art, free of convention, the power of structure, and the market place. Although Celant attempted to encompass the radical elements of the entire international scene, the term properly centered on a group of Italian artists who attacked the corporate mentality with an art of unconventional materials and style. Key figures closely associated with the movement are Giovanni Anselmo, Alighiero Boetti, Pier Paolo Calzolari, Luciano Fabro, Jannis Kounellis, Mario Merz, Marisa Merz, Giulio Paolini, Pino Pascali, Giuseppe Penone, Gianni Piacentino, Michelangelo Pistoletto, Emilio Prini, and Gilberto Zorio. They often used found objects in their works. Other early exponents of radical change in the visual arts include proto Arte Povera artists: Antoni Tàpies and the Dau al Set movement, Alberto Burri, Piero Manzoni, and Lucio Fontana and Spatialism. The most diverse public collection of works from the Arte Povera movement is at the Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein. ==Trends and concepts== * A return to simple objects and messages * The body and behavior are art * The everyday becomes meaningful * Traces of nature and industry appear * Dynamism and energy are embodied in the work * Nature can be documented in its physical and chemical transformation * Explore the notion of space and language * Complex and symbolic signs lose meaning * Ground Zero, no culture, no art system, Art = Life 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Arte Povera」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
