Piero Manzoni
Piero Manzoni (Italy, 1933–1963) was an avant-garde artist renowned for his provocative conceptual works that challenged traditional art forms. His most infamous piece, 'Artist's Shit' (1961), consisted of 90 sealed cans purportedly containing his own excrement, questioning the value and commercialization of art. Manzoni's innovative approach significantly influenced the development of conceptual 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.
