ABOUT: Combustione: Alberto Burri and America (2010) Lisa Melandri, Michael Duncan, Elsa Longhauser, with works by Alberto Burri Exhibition Catalogue — Santa Monica Museum of Art, Sept. 11-Dec. 18, 2010 This catalogue documents a focused exhibition exploring Alberto Burri's "Combustione" (Combustion) works and their deep, often under‑recognized connection to American postwar art. Rather than a broad retrospective, the book concentrates on the period when Burri's experiments with burning, melting, and transforming materials resonated with—and influenced—American avant‑garde movements. Scope and Purpose The volume positions Burri not simply as an Italian postwar master but as a transatlantic figure, whose innovations in material destruction and transformation paralleled developments in American art from the 1950s through the 1970s. It argues that Burri's combustions anticipated or intersected with: - Abstract Expressionism - Neo‑Dada and assemblage - Process art and material‑based practices - The California art scene's interest in industrial materials The catalogue serves both as an art‑historical study and as a visual record of the exhibition. Key Themes 1. Material as Event Burri's combustions—burned plastics, charred wood, melted industrial compounds—are presented as acts, not just objects. The essays emphasize: - The tension between destruction and creation - The transformation of humble materials into painterly surfaces - The performative dimension of burning as a technique 2. Burri's Dialogue with America 3. Historical and Cultural Context 4. Exhibition Plates and Documentation. …
