ZERO war von Männern dominiert. So lautet das Vorurteil, und ein Blick auf die Museums- und Marktpräsenz von Künstlern wie Lucio Fontana oder Günther Uecker scheint es zu bestätigen. Vergessen wird dabei, dass auch Künstlerinnen wie Nanda Vigo, Rotraut, Hal Busse oder Yayoi Kusama eine nicht zu unterschätzende Rolle in dem Ende der 1950er-Jahre gebildeten Zero-Netzwerk spielten. Tim Ackermann von Weltkunst hat ihrer Spur gefolgt. ![]()

The United Nations have acknowledged that art and artists can change the world and help in the process towards peace. 31 Artists were invited to make a work as a "messenger" for peace. An exhibition with those works will preview on November 7th at the Reichstag in Berlin and travel than for the official opening to New York in June (date to be confirmed).
Regarding the article “Ten Picasso pieces among forgotten works rediscovered in Tehran Museum of Contemporary Art’s collection.” posted on August 3, 2018 by the Internationale Artnewspaper.
No work by Picasso, nor any other artist, has ever been “forgotten” in the museum; but regularly displayed in different expositions in the museum, although this has not been noticed by curators, press and specialist outside Iran! There exists one sculpture, two oil paintings, one tapestry, the Buffon group (including thirty-one prints), in addition to seven other printed works by Picasso in the Tehran Museum of Contemporary Art’s collection, all of which have been exhibited in Iran. |
