Hauser&Wirth will present in New York a comprehensive overview of Italy’s innovative 20th-century art movement, Arte Povera
Italy in the 1960s-70s was defined by political and social reawakening, among which emerged Arte Povera. The movement united artists who rejected the values of established institutions of government, industry, and culture. Arte Povera offered alternatives to existing patterns of production and consumption, often confronting the notions of how art could be made and exhibited.
