Hayward Gallery in London (Hayward Gallery), an exhibition that make puzzle even those who at least understands something in contemporary art. The gallery contains 50 works by leading artists such as Andy Warhol, Yves Klein and Yoko Ono, who you really can not see. This first such exhibition, held in the largest institution in the UK.

Empty frames, white sheets of paper and a bare pedestal - that will see all art lovers. Rather, it is the public's imagination will play a decisive role in whether the exhibition will be successful or fail miserably.

The show "The Art of the Invisible 1957-2012" will open on June 12, and has been presented as "the best show you'll never see." As explained by the organizers, the aim of art is to stimulate people's imagination, rather than simply provide them with interesting objects, which you can watch.

Among the main attractions are the bare pedestal on which was once trod by Andy Uorlhol that will give visitors the opportunity to stay close to the "aura of celebrity».





Also on display are two works by the American conceptual artist Tom Friedman. The first of them, "thousands of hours examining" a clean sheet of paper, which Mr. Friedman turned to art, often seeing it for five years. The second work is called "Untitled (The Curse)", which is nothing more than an empty space, which has been cursed witch.

The work of Yves Klein, the French artist who was a pioneer of the invisible art in the 1950s, have also been included, along with a number of printed instructions Yoko Ono, which says that viewers should be present, if they look at art.

Other exhibits include work Japp Hain, called "Invisible Labyrinth", through which can be passed following the instructions they hear through headphones, and the film Jay Chang, for which he spent two years filming him without film in the camera.





The only thing that will see visitors, this is a report issued by the Italian police after the artist Maurizio Castellana said his invisible sculpture was stolen from his car in Milan.

"This exhibition demonstrates that when it comes to art, it's not all material objects, but to ignite our imagination, and artists did it in different ways," - said exhibition director Ralph Rugoff.
