Fontana / Giacometti The Research for the Absolute Published by Silvana Editoriale. Edited with text by Chiara Gatti, Sergio Risaliti. Text by Francesco Paolo Campione, Alessandro Del Puppo, Serenella Todesco, et al. An encounter between two sculptors whose textured, fleshlike works reveal a quest for the invisible within the human form This project marks the first ever comparison between the works of Lucio Fontana (1899–1968) and Alberto Giacometti (1901–66). It highlights the intersections between their artistic expressions while living in an era afflicted by questions about man and his role in the universe.
