黑料不打烊

Whether early Pop artists, trailblazers of Street Art, or protagonists of a 鈥渘atural poetry鈥� of reality: in the 1950s, the 鈥淎ffichistes鈥� came forward with a complete new concept of the panel painting. On their rambles through the streets of postwar Paris, they collected fragments of ubiquitous, overlayered, often weathered and tattered posters and elevated the world of everyday urban life itself to the status of a painting. Their access to reality, as subversive as it was poetic, made them pioneers of a 鈥淣ew Realism鈥�. The SCHIRN acknowledges the art of the 鈥淎ffichistes鈥� with an extensive exhibition, shining a light on its special role within the avant-garde of the 1950s and1960s. A total of 150 exhibits will present the entire spectrum of the art of tearing off posters, from small fragments to enormous large formats, from abstract color formations to icons of Pop culture 鈥� supplemented by photographic, cinematic, and poetic experiments by the participating artists: Fran莽ois Dufr锚ne, Raymond Hains, Jacques Villegl茅, as well as Mimmo Rotella and Wolf Vostell.
