Giuseppe Penone (Bilingual edition), Gebunden

Klappentext

The work of one of the main protagonists of international contemporary art

>The red thread is the theme of the imprint, a privileged subject in the artist's research, which can be found throughout the entire span of his production: from the work Alpi Marittime of 1968, the first experimentation of direct contact between body and forest, to the series Impronte di luce (2022-2023). Published on the occasion of the exhibition at the Ferrero Foundation, the monograph delves into the theme of the imprint, ranging from drawing to photography, from modelling to carving in an accurate compendium of the vast selection of genres and techniques tackled by the artist. The motif of the imprint becomes in Giuseppe Penone's vision synonymous with contact between different surfaces and finds its own ideal manifestation in nature, understood as a global ecosystem of which every element is an integral part, from the human being to the leaves, from the trees to the earth.
