// Collage Bierdeckel auf Karton by Herbert Zangs is a minimalist composition created in 1953, showcasing the artist's fascination with everyday materials and repetition. This collage is constructed from beer coasters arranged in a grid-like pattern on cardboard, resulting in a structured, geometric aesthetic. Zangs' choice of a monochromatic palette emphasizes texture and form over color, inviting viewers to contemplate the tactile qualities and subtle imperfections within each coaster. This work is a testament to Zangs' experimental approach in the 1950s, where he explored unconventional materials and processes to question traditional boundaries in art. Measuring 60 cm in height and 81 cm in width, this piece embodies a unique interaction between ordinary objects and artistic expression.

What is minimalism?
Minimalism is a style in music and visual arts characterized by pared-down designs and simplicity. It began in Western art after World War II, gaining prominence particularly in American visual arts. Minimalism draws heavily on aspects of modernism and is often viewed as a reaction against Abstract Expressionism, as well as a precursor to post-minimal art practices. Prominent minimalist artists include Agnes Martin, Donald Judd, Robert Morris, Frank Stella, and Dan Flavin.
