Catalogue Note
"C'era la solitudine astorica di Morandi, la solitudine storica di Licini, è il momento ora della solitudine privata di Burri, l'italiano feroce, previcace, protervo. In ogni suo lavoro è scritto che ci han da intendere cosi come siamo, ed è già un perpetuo atto rivoluzionario."
“There once was the unhistorical loneliness of Morandi, then the historical loneliness of Licini, now it is time for the private loneliness of Burri, the fierce, obstinate, arrogant Italian. In all his work it is written that we have to be understood just as we are, and it is already a perpetual revolutionary act.”
