The new term "Minimalism" was coined for the second half of the sixties, and this included a broader range of artistic media - including sculpture, wall reliefs, painting and drawing. Our series of "Minimalism and After" exhibitions, which started in 2002, begins with this extended spectrum.

We are looking at the seeds of Minimalism before the movement was really under way, and then at effects that relate to no particular time, and the later manifestations.

Who were the teachers and investigators around 1960? Where did artists make key contributions in the background, often overlooked by the art market? What encounters took place that have been forgotten today, and what historical parallels were there? What was the response in Europe? How is Minimalism addressed in contemporary international art discussions?
