Pietro Sanguineti's language-oriented work evokes the bold aesthetic of advertising but also incorporates a variety of historical and contemporary artistic references, from René Magritte to Ken Lum. Using words as visual motifs, Sanguineti explores the interplay between these almost polar approaches. This monograph surveys Sanguineti's work in installation, video and sculpture in addition to his trademark verbal images.
