Lucio Fontana. The possibility of beyond
by Paolo Campiglio
With Paolo Campiglio, Flavio Fergonzi and Giorgio Zanchetti

A life divided between two worlds, Italy and Argentina, and between two ways of conceiving art, the 19th and 20th centuries. Lucio Fontana is best known for his iconic 'cuts', but his creative adventure is much richer and more complex.
The result of thirty years of research, Paolo Campiglio's biography reconstructs one of the most innovative and multifaceted artistic personalities of the 20th century, beyond any stereotype. What emerges is his combative spirit, irony and overwhelming charm, qualities that led art critic Raffaele Carrieri to say: 'In everything he does, the temperature exceeds normal voltage'.

The event is free of charge, but booking is recommended. The ticket for the conference does not include admission to the Art Museum. A video of the event will be published on Fondazione's YouTube channel.
