Daniel Spoerri
Daniel Spoerri (Switzerland, 1930–2024) was a pioneering artist and writer, best known for his 'snare-pictures'—assemblages capturing everyday objects, notably meal remnants, affixed to surfaces and displayed vertically. A key figure in the Nouveau Réalisme movement, he also founded the Eat Art movement, exploring the intersection of art and gastronomy. Spoerri's works are featured in major institutions, including the Museum of Modern Art and the Centre Pompidou.

What is Nouveau Realism?
Nouveau Réalisme is an artistic movement founded in 1960 by art critic Pierre Restany and painter Yves Klein during a collective exhibition at a gallery in Milan. Restany wrote the original manifesto in April 1960, proclaiming the movement. In October of that year, nine artists, including Martial Raysse, Yves Klein, Daniel Spoerri, Jean Tinguely, Arman, Pierre Restany, and three Ultra-Lettrists—Jacques de la Villeglé, François Dufrêne, and Raymond Hains—signed the declaration. In 1961, the movement expanded to include Mimmo Rotella, Niki de Saint Phalle, Gérard Deschamps, and César. The movement emphasized a return to reality in art, often incorporating everyday objects and exploring the boundaries between art and life.
