Italian-English text. Exhibition catalogue. Summary: The exhibition features around 25 Volumi [Volumes] by Dadamaino, executed between 1958 and 1960. With this term, which denotes the work produced by Dadamaino in the late 1950s and early 1960s (the first to make her known to the public, and with which she she shifts suddenly from figurative to experimentation on a framework) the artist made her intentions very clear. Which were to work on the three-dimensional quality of physical space, on extension: not cuts or holes, as in the work Fontana had been producing for at least ten years, or surface, as in Castellani, but figures, nearly always ovoid figures, hand-cut onto the canvas, with imprecise borders, which empty the canvas until the frame is revealed, transforming the picture into pure structure, in which the empty areas dominate the space. We regret to inform you that this title is no longer available. P.O. Box 3904, Kingston, New York 12402 US Phone: 845-331-8519 Fax: 845-331-0852 Email: michael@artbooks.com |
