ZERO & CO​

Settantotto presents a group show with historic works by international artists that belonged to or had close ties with the ZERO movement.

 

Founded in 1958 in Düsseldorf (Germany) by Heinz Mack and Otto Piene and later joined by Gunther Uecker, ZERO grew into an international art movement when other artists from The Netherlands, Italy, France, Switzerland and Belgium joined.
