MUSEO NOVECENTO
Visit to the exhibition Lucio Fontana . L’origine du monde
for whom: for young people and adults
times: 15.00 and 16.30
duration: 1h15′
Starting from the works on display – largely centered on the concepts of life and space, with a large section dedicated to the female figure and her generative energy – it will be possible to delve into the poetics and work of one of the greatest artists of the twentieth century, Lucio Fontana, capable of unhinging the coordinates of the art of his time by expanding its languages, techniques and perspectives in a potentially infinite way. In the continuous dialogue, still very current, between earth and cosmos, between man and nature, between matter and form, between change and perfection, the exhibited works therefore place themselves in the eyes of the public as tools of art and thought, thanks to which to grasp the connoting features of the spatial revolution started by the artist but also draw important ideas for our vision of the world and our being part of it.
