BOOKS THAT MATTER
Printed in Italy
STATING THAT
This book does not aim at being an objective and general analysis of the phenomenon of
art or life, but is rather an attempt to flank (both life and art) as accomplices of the chan-
ges and attitudes in the development of their daily becoming.
The book does not attempt to be objective since the awareness of objectivity is false cons-
clousness.
_ The book, made up of photographs and written documents, bases its critical and editorial
assumptions on the knowledge that criticism and iconographic documents give limited vision
and partial perception of artistic work.
The book, when it reproduces the documentation of artistic work, refutes the linguistic me-
diation of photography.
‘The book, even though it wants to avoid the logic of consumption, is a consumer's item,
The book inevitably transforms the work of the artist into consumer goods and cultural
“goods, a means of satisfying the cultural frustrations of the reader.
The book proposes a way for the public to take part in artistic events, but does not im-
* pose it upon them.
> The book narrows and deforms, given its literary and visual oneness, the work of the artist.
The book is a precarious and contingent document and lives hazardously in an uncertain
,
artistic-social situation.
The book is offered only as an instrument for further experience in regard to art and life.
The book does not aim at establishing what has happened in art, but what is happening.
The book is entitled « art povera». This critical definition makes the type of material col-
lected understandable to the public and places itself as work among other works; it does
not aspire to be a unique definition of works of art, realizing that it furnishes only a spe-
cial aspect of the infinite charge that can be found in the same works. There are other
critical definitions, the best known being: conceptual art, earthworks, raw materialist mi-
croemotive art, antiform.
The book remains within the limits of the collection of the material; tomorrow there could
be another book by the same authors.
The book has not been designed a priori, but has grown, constructed in a quantitatively
fortuitous way — in the same way that the artists have collaborated to bring it about.
, The book coagulates a fluid and continuously becoming state that is exactly that of the
work of art.
In this book there is no need to reflect in order to seek a unitary and reassuring value, im-
mediately refuted ky the authors themselves, rather there is the necessity to look into it for
the changes, limits, precariousness and instability of artistic work.

WALTER DE MARIA
Art yard
| have been thinking about an art yard | would like to build. It would be sort of a big hole
in the ground. Actually it wouldn’t be a hole to begin with. That would have to be dug.
The digging of the hole would be part of the art. Luxurious stands would be made for
the art lovers and spectators to sit in.
They would come to the making of the yard dressed in tuxedoes and clothes which would
make them aware of the significance of the event they would see. Then in front of the
stand of people a wonderful parade of steamshovels and bulldozers will pass. Pretty
soon the steam shovels would start to dig. And small explosions would go off. What
wonderful art will be produced. Inexperienced people like La Monte Young will run the
steamshovels. From here on out what goes on can’t easily be said. (It is hard to explain
art). As the yard gets deeper and its significance grows, people will run into the yard,
grab shovels, do their part, dodge explosions. This might be considered the first meaning-
ful dance. People will yell « Get that bulldozer away from my child». Bulldozers will
be making wonderful pushes of dirt all around the yard. Sounds, words, music, poetry.
(Am | too specific? optimistic?)
The whole action might last any amount of time. Maybe the machines will run out of gas.
Or the people take over the machines. Or the holes might cave in. In any case | am
sure there will be enough range of possibilities in the art to permit individual variation,
and in time, style and acceptance.
« (The town of Pittsburg’s recent Art Yard was interesting but followed a usual romantic
machine crashing interpretation. Yet even with this interpretation not enough was done
with the explosions and collisions to merit special notice, and obvious references to NEW
YORK’S recent two acre festival did not go unnoticed.) » Alas.
| have just been thinking about this wonderful art, already it is being killed in my mind.
Is nothing safe? Perhaps you haven't thought me serious? Actually | am. And if this
paper should fall into the hands of someone who owns a construction company and who
is interested in promoting art and my ideas, please get in touch with me immediately.
Also if someone owns an acre or so of land (preferably in some large city... for
art... thrives there) do not hesitate.

Thought for Celant. The broken glass is the violinists, the lances are the organ, the sticks
have a wonderful sound, what more do you want. It certainly is necessary to believe that
the streets and houses are crowded with people.

The world is full of objects, more or less interesting: | do not wish to add any more.
| prefer, simply, to state the existence of things in terms of time and/or place.
More specifically, the work concerns itself with things whose inter-relationship is beyond
direct perceptual experience.
Because the work is beyond direct perceptual experience, awareness of the work depends
on a system of documentation.
This documentation takes the form of photographs, maps, drawings and descriptive lan-
guage.

... | can say that | never have a clear and direct philosophy and never see any need to stay
with a ‘direction’ or ‘group’.
The changes in my work are the changes in the time around me or the given situation, and
are the same changes comparable to when | for one week like cheese and the other week
meaf.
Yet, at the same time | do like old cheese or meat, but then with the consciousness of the
fact that it isn’t the same cheese or meat I’m using because it changed in time or situation.
| call my works rather materialized actions of passing-by and coincidental meetings in time.

My current work , whic h cons ists of cate gori es from the thes auru s, deal s with the mult iple
aspects of an idea of something. | changed the form of presentation from the mounted pho-
tostat, to the purchasing of spaces in newspapers and periodicals (with one « work » some-
time s taki ng up as man y as five or six spac es in that man y publ icat ions - dep end ing on how
many divisions exist in the category). This way the immateriality of the work is stressed
and any possible connections to painting are severed. The new work is not connected
with a precious object — it is accessible to as many people as are interested, it is non-
decorative — having nothing to do with architecture; it can be brought into the home or
museum, but was not made with either in mind; it can be dealt with by being torn out of
its publication and inserted into a notebook or stapled to the wall — or not torn out at
all — but any such decision is unrelated to the art. My role as an artist ends with the
work’s publication.

JAN DIBBETS
Institutes such as galleries and museums have become in our society to be promoters of new
directions in fine arts. The museum and the gallery make known the art. This brings in
its train the fact that lots of artists without knowing are searching for their conception
from the point of view of the museum or with regard to the gallery.
Moreover the gallery thrusts an extra aspect on the art: the possibility of selling. In spite
of that you have to realize that the museum and the gallery in their present form are insti-
tutes which don’t meet any longer the new demands that art is asking for. Besides it is a
hindrance to creativity to fasten yourself to a norm of showing and selling.
Painting and the selling have become clichés of fine arts. | search consciously for a form
of art which is not tied by tradition and in which an oeuvre is less important than the
research. There are so many different situations in which to look at something, that stand-
ing right before the painting or walking around a sculpture could well be the most simple
kind.
You can fly over something, you can walk along something, drive (by car or train) sail etc.
You can « disorientate » the spectator in space, integrate him, you can make him smaller
and bigger, you can force upon him space and again deprive him of it.
| start by thinking I’m going to make use of all possibilities without troubling any longer
about problems when something starts:to be art. | don’t make the ETERNAL work of ART,
| only give visual information. I’m more involved with the process than the finished work
of art. The part of my object is untranslated. | think objects are the most usual part of
my work. I’m not really interested any longer to make an object.

GIOVANNI ANSELMO
|, the world, things, life, we are situations of energy and the point is not to crystallize
such situations, though maintaining them open and alive is a function of our living.
Since every way of thinking or being has to correspond to a way of acting, my work really is
the physication of the force of an action, of the energy of a situation or an event, efc., not
just the experience of this on the level of annotation or of a sign or of dead nature.
It is necessary, for example, that the energy of a torsion lives with its true force; it certainly
wouldn’t live just by its form.
| think that to operate in this direction, since the energy exists under the most various ap-
pearances and situations, there must be the most absolute liberty of choice or of the use of
materials; there would thus be a flavour of nonsense in speaking of styles, of form or anti-
form and anyhow it would be a very secondary and superficial discourse.
It is necessary for me to work in this way because | know of no other system for being within
the heart of reality, which, precisely in my work, becomes an extension of my living, my
thinking, my acting.

These forms certainly do exist, they are controlled and have their own
characteristics. They
are made of various kinds of energy which exist outside the narrow arb
itrary limits of our
own senses. | use various devices to produce the energy, detect it, measure it, and
define
its form.
By just being in this show, I’m making known the existence of the work.
I’m presenting
these things in an art situation using the space and the catalogue. | thi
nk this will be less
of a problem as people become more acclimated to this art.
As with any art, an interested person reacts in a personal way based on
his own expe-
rience and imagination. Obviously, | can’t control that.
One kind of energy is electromagnetic waves. There is a piece in the sho
w which uses the
carrier wave of a radio station for a prescribed length of time, not as a means of trans-
mitting information, but rather as an object.
Another piece uses the carrier wave of a citizens’ band transmitter to bridge two dist
ant
points in New York and Luxembourg several times during the run of the show.
Because of the position of the sun and favourable atmospheric conditions during
January,
the month of the show, « this » piece could be made. At another time, under different
conditions, other locations would have to be used.
There are two smaller carrier wave pieces which have just enough power fo fill the exhi
-
bition space. They are very different in character, one being AM, the other being FM,
but
both will occupy the same space at the same time — such is the nature of the material
.
Also in the show will be a room filled with ultrasonic sound. I've also used microwaves
and radiation.
There are many other possibilities which | intend to explore — and I’m sure there are
a
lot of things we don’t yet know about which exist in the space around us, and alt
hough
we don’t see them or feel them, we somehow know they are out there.

| would like to make known that | love a ball of paper, the igloo, shoes, fine thread, fern,
the chirping of the cricket; | love reality, the function of a paper ball, of an igloo, of shoes,
of fine thread, of a fern, of the chirping of the cricket: | would like to make known that |

to make known that | love the one who has used them for himself, that now | can
recognize myself. | would like to make known that irreality exists and the vulgarity of the
relations with this irreality kills my inventive faculty and the necessity of democratically
expanding my consciousness. There is the dull dimension that wants to measure and to
define itself. | would like to make known that no one can limit my need to expand and
perceive for a period of time and more. | say that the only definition my intelligence imposes
upon me is to distinguish and forbid me the liberty and happiness of stammering at every
encounter, and to invent it and then again it orders me to record that | have invented it.
| would like to make known that | want expansion, democracy, madness, alchemy, insanity,
rhythm, horizontality.
| want to make it known that | don’t want moments of consciousness, that | want to be
alive as much as possible and expanded as much as one can well be, | would like to say
and to make it known that the smile playing around the face and the skull of a cat is more
important, and that the discovery of a fountain hiding itself is good, very good and | want
to make known an insupportable list, physicality, verticality, behaviour, demonstration,
rational intelligence, the humiliation of a procedure, representativity. | would like to say

DENNIS OPPENHEIM
My first field piece involved the use of commercial snow-fencing 4’ x 50’ to create linear
cuts in the surface media. Any imposed linear pattern seemed « forced », so | worked
mainly with long single directional cuts. In some cases, however, the fencing was curved
and grouped to assimilate truncated or incomplete contour lines. My contours were in op-
position to the existing topography.
After watching numerous wheat harvest operations, | approached a farmer in Pennsylva-
nia, asking to direct or plot the harvester’s course. A 200’ x 500’ field bordered by corn
was alloted to me. My instruction was simply to make a cut directly down the centre of
the field - photo 1 . The same farmer will allow me to organize the planting of his crops
(corn, oats, barley, hay, wheat) this coming year.
What became interesting with the field pieces were the isolated stages of progress.
If we see the 200’ x 900’ field of wheat as kind of non rigid media held in geometry, —
which through linear cuts or eradications are transformed into separate sub-forms (bales)
later to be subjected to a mobile topographical displacement (trucking bales to stock
piles), each stage is art.
My most recent piece, located on a New Haven, Connecticut, swamp grid, is divided into
rectangles (150’ x 175’) each bordered by water. Using a sickle mower, | described alti-
tude or contour lines in the thick surface. The cuts were filled with iron filings (residue
from steel borings).
Altitude lines on contour maps serve to translate measurement of existing topography to
a two dimensional surface. With my piece, | create contours which oppose the reality of
the existing land, and impose their measurements onto the actual site, thus creating a kind
of conceptual mountainous structure on a swamp grid.

DOG TRACKS
From the « First Step » on Six Steps on a Section.
On the site of my « first step » (Bergen Hill N.J.) from « Six Steps on a Section », | discov-
ered an array of dog tracks around a puddle of water. The distribution of the tracks was
indeterminate. Each of these tracks radiated many possible paths leading in all directions,
a maze-like network came into view with the help of my camera, which acted as a single
point of view from an aerial position. My wife counted 38 paw prints in the 3’ x 3’ photo-
blow-up of my snapshot, but many of the prints were obliterated by the overlapping of
other print-points, rendering a clear view impossible. Visualizing a direct route from any
of these tracks would be hazardous, and bound to lead the viewer astray. The « section »
of my Six Steps is based on a stratigraphic (sub-surface map) that extends along a line
from New York to Dingman’s Ferry on the Delaware River in Pa. Each « step » is a point
where particles of earth were collected and then deposited into containers that follow the
cross-section contours of the six mapped sites. The points of collected earth become enor-
mous land masses in the containers. If you consider everything in N. Y. C. collapsed to
the size of this book, you will get some notion of the process. A point in the mind, or a
paw print in the mud, becomes a world of serial closures and open sequences that overflow
the narrow focus of conscious attention.

GIULIO PAOLINI
What | can mean by dignity, by « essential quality » of an artist, does not find its solution in
experience, the project cannot be reduced to the object, the imagination eludes the image,
| am not the picture.
Instead, it « concedes itself » to the direct, guaranteed legible translation, corresponds to
the compositive elaboration of a technique, of a process, already existing by itself. From
there comes the difficulty of maintaining the level of research in merit « just » to this prob-
lem, given on the one hand the false solutions offered by tautology, and on the other the
satisfaction of the wit, the difficulty, finally, to give an « aesthetic » valuation of the
problem.
For this reason, to project doesn’t mean anything else today than the will to accomplish a
« finished » experimentation (that is not tending «to» but turned « on»), such that by
oneself one arrives at defining the relation and the qualitative difference (not according to
superannuated hypotheses of purity and liberty of language, but of correctness of expres-
sion) between painting and design, for example: in terms of a close reading of the work,
that is of pure appearance, design « means », it exhibits the project, while the painting for-
gets it, cancels it, in favour of the endless and profound apertures that we can only see in-
distinctly, but that we must pursue so that reality may be more enjoyable, and therefore
more real. (September 1963).
