Multiplied
Edition MAT and the Transformable Work of Art, 1959-1965
In 1959 Daniel Spoerri pioneered the first programmatic series of multiples – three-dimensional objects issued in edition – to be broadly distributed. With a radical emphasis on multiplication and movement, Edition MAT (Multiplication d’art transformable) presents an international selection of works by key figures in postwar kinetic and Op art.

description
"Multiplied" is the first in-depth English-language study of this seminal project in the history of postwar art. The catalogue presents the entirety of the three collections – 1959, 1964, and 1965 – consisting of 49 artworks by 35 European, Latin American, and US artists associated with kinetic and Op art, including such leading figures as Marcel Duchamp, Man Ray, Dieter Roth and Jean Tinguely, alongside lesser-known artists. With three essays, artwork entries, and newly translated historical texts, this volume sheds light on under-studied artworks as well as the body of critical thought connecting art, commerce and display in the postwar period.
