Piero Manzoni: The Twin Paintings

Více o knize

Spotlighting two iconic ?Achrome? paintings from the late 1950s by renowned Italian artist Piero Manzoni (1933-1963), this publication provides an in-depth portrait of the artist?s radical series. His series of ?Achromes? - literally translated as ?without color? or ?neutral?, initially with gesso and then with kaolin and creased canvases in 1957 and 1958 - mark the development of an entirely new visual language and reframing of artistic interpretation. His tireless quest to understand the artist?s role in the art making process prompted conceptual leaps and experiments in early performance art.
