This catalogue proposes a new reading of art produced between 1920s and the 1970s. We are dealing here not with a history of kinetic art, but with something closer to an essay, in which we are confronted with works that would perhaps find no place in the existing official genealogy. It also sets out to re-assess certain aspects of the kinetic art of the 1960s, a tendency all too frequently ignored or trivialised in the history of art and establishes new and revealing connections between groups of works conventionally seen by art history as being at opposite poles, or even mutually antagonistic. Among the artists shown here are figures as classic as Pol Bury, Alexander Calder, Marcel Duchamp, László Moholy-Nagy, Georges Vantongerloo, Hélio Oiticica, Henri Michaux, Gordon Matta-Clark and Lucio Fontana.
