Manzoni in Holland

Softcover | 14.48 x 2.03 x 21.08 cm | 160 pp

NAI Publishers | 2019 | 9789462085053

Italian artist Piero Manzoni (1933-1963) is seen as one of the pioneers of international conceptual art. During his short artistic career, he produced more than a thousand canvases, sculptures and other objects. He radically broke with the conventions of art, even making the body of the artist, and sometimes that of his audience, part of the work.

Manzoni in Holland accompanied the exhibition of the same name in the Stedelijk Museum Schiedam and, in addition to three elaborately illustrated essays, a timeline
and an overview of the works on show in the exhibition, includes a selection of letters from the intensive correspondence between Manzoní and Rotterdam gallery owner
Hans Sonnenberg (1928-2017). Manzoni maintained a special bond with the Netherlands. His work was of great significance not only for Dutch zero artists and international ZERO members, but also for following generations of artists.

Manzoni in Holland tells the unprecedented story about one of the most prominent avant-garde artists of the twentieth century and his special relationship with the Netherlands.
