Catalogue Note
“Lucio Fontana è l’artista che più di altri ha sentito, in tutta la sua attività, una nuova apertura decorativa: il movimento dello spazialismo, da lui creato negli anni del secondo dopoguerra, sviluppa in sostanza questo problema della scultura e della pittura ambientale, nel modo più attivo: supera dunque i limiti generici di scultura e pittura, si serve anche del segno-gesto, ma soprattutto sente la necessità di aprire e muovere, con nuovi mezzi, l’ambiente spaziale” Guido Ballo, Occhio critico, Milano 1966, pagg. 195-196
