Paolo Scheggi
Paolo Scheggi (Italy, 1940–1971) was a pivotal figure in the Italian Spatialist movement, renowned for his monochromatic works featuring layered canvases with elliptical or circular openings. His 'Intersuperfici' series challenged traditional perceptions of space and depth in art. Scheggi's innovative approach extended to architecture, fashion, and performance, leaving a lasting impact on 20th-century art.
What is the Zero Movement?
ZERO was an art movement founded by Otto Piene and Heinz Mack, aiming to develop into a large international and cross-border movement. The name ZERO originated from a magazine founded by Heinz Mack in 1957, which became a platform for the group's ideas. The magazine was published for several years before ceasing in 1967. The ZERO movement sought to create a new beginning in art, emphasizing light, space, and movement, and became influential in post-war European art.
