Art Icon Daniel Spoerri, Pioneer of Nouveau Réalisme, Passes Away

Daniel Spoerri, a key figure of the Nouveau Réalisme movement and creator of the innovative ‘eat art’ concept, has passed away, as announced by the Centre Pompidou. Born in 1930 in Romania, Spoerri was renowned for his three-dimensional still lifes and his thought-provoking ‘tableaux-pièges.’ He co-founded the Nouveau Réalisme movement in 1960 and opened a unique restaurant in Düsseldorf, where patrons could take home art. His legacy, characterized by blending reality with art, continues to inspire and provoke thought in the contemporary art world.
