"In 1959, Swiss artist and writer Daniel Spoerri pioneered an inventive new series of artist-created editioned multiples to be broadly distributed. While artists have long created editioned multiples of artworks—from prints and handmade books to sculptures—Spoerri’s project placed a radical focus on multiplication and movement. His Edition MAT (Multiplication d’art transformable) presented a selection of works by key figures in postwar k ..."

"The range of the graphic art collection at the Kunstmuseen Krefeld is enormous: art from around 1900 and classical modernism as well as a wide selection of works on paper from the 1960s to the present. It is this very diversity that calls for a new look at the collection. The catalogue therefore focuses less on individual drawings and more on a wealth of possible, occasionally surprising connections. Accompanying texts highlight the his ..."

"Greek-born Italian painter, Giorgio De Chirico (1888-1978) was hugely influential in the early years of the Surrealist movement.

This phase of his work, which he later termed pittura metafisica (metaphysical painting) was marked by dramatic compositions involving sharp persp ..."

"Hungarian-French painter Victor Vasarely (1906–1997) was a precocious talent. His earliest surviving painting, a landscape done at age 12, baffled through its realism―an indication of the compelling illusions of spatial depth that would later define his dazzling universe.Inspired by the likes of Malevich and the Bauhaus school, Vasarely developed his own abstract-geometric visual language, exploring the relationship between pure form an ..."

It was in Italy that his best-known editions and final large installation, "Palazzo R ..."
