Daniel Spoerri (Switzerland, 1930–2024) was a pioneering artist and writer, best known for his 'snare-pictures'—assemblages capturing everyday objects, notably meal remnants, affixed to surfaces and displayed vertically. A key figure in the Nouveau Réalisme movement, he also founded the Eat Art movement, exploring the intersection of art and gastronomy. Spoerri's works are featured in major institutions, including the Museum of Modern Art and the Centre Pompidou.

When I had the money, I immediately associated art to food. Before the banquet comes food, then the kitchen, the restaurant and then the ‘Eat Art’.
- Daniel Spoerri

Daniel Spoerri is a Swiss artist who is well known for his art, snare-pictures. In this signature, Spoerri details a collection of objects notably meal remains, glasses, plates, and silverware secured on a board or table then depicted on a wall. As a young man, Spoerri developed an interest in dance and decided to join Olga Preobrajenska to study classical dance in 1950. He then went on to become the lead dancer at the State Opera of Bern in Switzerland in 1954. Subsequent years saw him stage a variety of avant-garde plays among them being the Bald Soprano, and the Desire Trapped by the Tail. In 1960, Spoerri came up with his first ever snare picture, and it is this same year that he came to be among the signatories that fostered the manifesto of New Realism. He also authored a book which he referred to as the Anecdoted Topography of Chance which was an annotation of the objects in his rooms. Daniel currently stays in Tuscany in Italy. (Artist website)

What is Performance Art?

Performance Art is a genre of fine art that is traditionally interdisciplinary, involving various art forms. It can be scripted or unscripted, random or carefully orchestrated, spontaneous, or meticulously planned, with or without audience participation. Performance Art can be presented live or through media, with the artist either present or absent. It typically involves four basic elements: space, the performer’s body or presence through a medium, time, and the relationship between performer and audience. The artwork consists of actions performed by an individual or group in a specific time and space.
