Frammenti dell'Arte Povera. Jannis Kounellis and Mario Merz in the Speck Collection

n cooperation with the renowned private collector from Cologne, Reiner Speck, the Museum of Modern Art Carinthia presents for the first time Mario Merz (1925 - 2003) and Jannis Kounellis (born in 1936), two leading proponents of ‘Arte Povera’ (poor art). The presentation of this art movement, which was developed in Italy in the 60s, not only brings the art up to date and refreshes our memories, but, above all, also questions its validity.
