ARTE POVERA

Expresion italiana que significa "arte pobre" y que define una

corriente estetica aparecida en Turin hacia 1967 como reaccion frente

al arte tradicional en la medida en que este es considerado bello y

de materiales nobles.

El arte povera se vale de objetos del desecho o sin valor real ni

artistico, triviales y ajenos a denominaciones como bello, hermoso o

exquisito. Se propone dar valor a estructuras primarias conseguidas

con materiales groseros y hasta repulsivos, pero siempre intentando

dotarles de un espiritu poetico. Para ello trata de llevar la

atenciýn del espectador hacia aspectos cotidianos anonimos y

rutinarios a los que nunca se habia atribuido ninguna cualidad

artistica, pero sobre todo se define como contrapeso de la cultura

tradicional, a la que considera inalienable y cerrada a la

averiguacion de las nuevas perspectivas revolucionarias.

Entre los artistas que cultivan el arte povera destacan Antoni

Tapies, Giovanni Anselmo, Mario Merz, Gilberto Zorio, Giuseppe

Penone, Michalangelo Pistoletto, Luciano Fabro, Pino Pascali, Janis

Kounellis, Lawrence Weiner, Richard Serra, Robert Morris, Hans Haacke

y Gerhard Azenall.
