"Milan. Year 1949. Lucio Fontana is working in his studio on Corso Monforte. He is not satisfied with how a painting is turning out, so he decides to destroy it. He grabs a blade and... SLASH!"
With his gesture, both destructive and innovative, Lucio Fontana managed to synthesize something unique: he was able to represent space, infinite space, with a cut in the canvas. This is how his famous Concetti Spaziali were born—works made of holes and cuts, in paper, terracotta, canvas, or metal, that Fontana created with focus and determination.
In the same series, in which the artist Gilberti tells us, with intelligence and a playful eye, the works of great figures in contemporary art, we find the stories of Yves Klein, Piero Manzoni, Marcel Duchamp, Lucio Fontana, Yayoi Kusama, and Banksy.
