Description
The book proposes an unprecedented reflection on the oeuvre by Lucio Fontana, whose art appears to be not so masculine and demiurgic, as much critical literature has already argued, but rather alluding to the female generative force, active in the artist’s mind as in nature, in the cosmos and in the fertile body of the Earth. Drawing from a selection of refined drawings and small sculptures, a new interpretation of the Master’s research is outlined, directed towards a chthonic, original, telluric dimension of a newly generated matter. New light can thus be shed on the “cuts”, on the “holes” and on representations of the nude: works often executed with a primary, childlike gesture, almost an instinctual drive, revealing a lively and inexhaustible creative freedom.
