For another approach of art history – publishing / collecting / preserving / writing / diffusing

Im Rahmen des Projekts "Studienzentrums zur Moderne - Bibliothek Herzog Franz von Bayern am Zentralinstitut für Kunstgeschichte"

 

The lecture will focus on the activities of the "archive for small press & communication" founded in 1974. Its aim was to collect, preserve and present the patrimony built up by people, active from inside and not from outside the art scene, to be the witness and memory of actions independent of all powers. Artists' publications were a unique medium in this period of cultural and social evolution. Still they are the most radical way to approach art.
