Product Description
This volume accompanies a major and unprecedented survey of the work of Lucio Fontana, which opened at Gagosian Gallery New York in May 2012. Curated by Germano Celant, assisted by Gagosian Gallery director Valentina Castellani in close collaboration with the Fondazione Lucio Fontana in Milan, this exciting and complex exhibition includes many of Fontanas works that have rarely been seen and reunites important series from public and private collections. Six of his groundbreaking environments, known as Ambienti Spaziali, have been faithfully reconstructed, providing a completely new perspective for the rich and varied retrospective of more than one hundred major works that surrounds them. This fully illustrated catalogue includes an interview with Germano Celant.
