The catalogue accompanying Kounellis's spectacular staging in the halls of the Monnaie de Paris
Those who enter the exhibition spaces of the Monnaie de Paris in this spring will hold their breath. Jannis Kounellis (*1936 in Piraeus), cofounder and one of the most important representatives of Arte Povera, designed a completely new, open work of art for the venerable halls of the Monnaie de Paris, the French Mint.
As is the case for all of his works, for Kounellis what comes into play first is space, followed by the idea for filling it. Thus the catalogue as well as the exhibition not only show his most recent work, but also consummate the development of his oeuvre on the basis of each of the spaces in which this vibrant art takes shape.
