Lucio Fontana is universally acknowledged as one of the foremost figures in the generation of artists who, in the 1950s and ’60s, helped bring about a radical conceptual and linguistic change in contemporary art. The role he played was already being pointed out by specialised critics in the early years of the post-war period, involving a growing number of scholars and admires, while also constituting a model for the young generation of artists in Europe. However it has been especially in the past two decades that Fontana’s work has achieved even greater international renown.
The essay by Enrico Crispolti, Luca Massimo Barbero, Caterina Toschi and Piero Dorazio publish in this book give great insight into the origins, content and features involved in the works and in the artistic movement that the artist himself referred to as Spazialismo. This book accompanies and describe the content of the new exhibition at Tornabuoni Gallery in Rome.
