The exhibition "Zero Point of Meaning" seeks to explore photography as an experimental and research medium. Artists who have reached for a camera at a particular point in their artistic career (or instructed others to shoot something particular, or simply took over – appropriated – other people's photographs) were not interested in the technical capacities of the medium or even the quality of their shots; instead, they considered photography as a sort of coordinate that functioned like an echo of some event or absent artwork, like a channel communicating the conceptualization or realization of a particular artistic idea. All this testifies to important changes in the way photography was understood and interpreted as art, all of which was influenced by the political and social circumstances from the 60s onwards.
