Summary

Italian for "Poor Art", the term Arte Povera was introduced by the Italian art critic and curator Germano Celant in 1967 as a label for a small grou p of artists who were experimenting with non- traditional and politically charged art. These artists created and explored forms of expression such as ephemeral art, performance art, installations and assemblage.
