Hopefulmonster | 2005 | 9788877571830
This monograph provides insight into many aspects of Gilberto Zorio's (b. 1944) works, including paintings, sculpture, installations and drawings including works from the 60s - Sedia (Chair), Tenda (Tent) and Senza titolo (Untitled), (Star) and Canoa (Canoe).
Zorio’s artistic activity began through his involvement in the Arte Povera movement which developed in Italy at the end of the Sixties, as part of a more general tendency toward anti-form, anti-geometry. The interest in space and form was replaced by a focus on human activity and desire for organic harmony between art, culture and nature. Zorio uses primary material (metals, glass, rubber, wood, animal hide, alcohol, acids and minerals, water, fire and light), he concentrates on energy processes and is concerned with language as a medium and processes of linguistic communication.
This book was published on the occasion of the solo exhibition held at the Institut Mathildenhöhe in Darmstadt, Germany 2005. The book includes a chronology with numerous photos and documents and an updated biobibliography.
PLEASE NOTE: This book is a NON-MINT item. NON-MINT books are new but are either ex-display copies or warehouse marked - minor cosmetic imperfections such as scuffs, marks, or minor dents to the covers.
