Reversing the Eye. Arte Povera and Beyond. 1960-1975 Photography, Film, Video

This publication and exhibition it accompanies take a fresh look at the arte povera movement rarely associated with photographic and film media. They invite the viewer to "reverse the eye" through this unprecedented view of the artistic movement by also placing it in the social and political context of the time in Italy. The result of extensive research in artists' studios and private and public collections, the book reveals the extraordinary richness of a period when Italian artists were among the most important interpreters of the transformation of visual languages.
