LUCIO FONTANA: VENICE / NEW YORK

Lucio Fontana (1899-1968) is widely considered a father of postwar monochromatic abstraction and Conceptual art. This major catalogue, published to accompany the artist's first US exhibition since 1977, introduces two rare bodies of works created around the cities of Venice and New York. It includes essays by leading scholars of Fontana's oeuvre, including Enrico Crispolti, Paolo Campiglio, Barbara Ferriani and Luca Massimo Barbero.
