Synopsis

The book aims to investigate affinities and points of tangency between Lucio Fontana and Alberto Giacometti, two pillars of twentieth-century art, whose works are placed at the center of an unprecedented and surprising dialogue.
Figures of opposite temperaments, but accompanied by the same magnificent obsession with the invisible within and without, Giacometti and Fontana work matter in search of the absolute. Sealing the eternal within the confines of the modeled, the practice of both hinges on gesture and manipulation, on concentration and the renunciation of definitive form. It is a poignant sense of the sacred that nourishes their drive toward the unfathomable mystery of existence: a tension often translated into an inquiry into the formal and semantic value of emptiness, understood as an allegory of a possibility beyond the visible.
